Computer science (or computing science) is the study of the theoretical foundations of information and computation and their implementation and application in computer systems.[1][2][3] Computer science has many sub-fields; some emphasize the computation of specific results (such as computer graphics), while others relate to properties of computational problems (such as computational complexity theory). Still others focus on the challenges in implementing computations. For example, programming language theory studies approaches to describing computations, while computer programming applies specific programming languages to solve specific computational problems. A further subfield, human-computer interaction, focuses on the challenges in making computers and computations useful, usable and universally accessible to people.

well Suman, The generalised used of computers has increased the demand of computer technicians in areas such as finance, energy, medicine, business management, on-line libraries, cable television, electronic mail, the new banking systems, traffic control, etc.
The most frequent openings are:
→ Civil service
→Training and teaching
→ Research
→Freelance work
→Programmer and analyst
→ Private commercial companies
→ Private industrial companies
→Private service companies
→Software production companies
→Software expert
→System operator
→Technical consultancy
→Computer auditing
→ Artificial intelligence and new technologies
→Analysis, computer management and development departments
→ Management and organization of computing projects and data programming
centres
In general, these professionals work in all areas of business.
PROFESSIONAL TASKS
The tasks carried out by computer engineers can be included in two different areas:
analysis and programming. Some of these tasks would be:
→ Directing software development teams
→ Directing and managing computer projects
→ Designing, creating and managing computer systems and management tools
for companies
→ Starting businesses on the Internet
→ Designing and managing local, external and Internet connection computer
networks
→ Designing and managing computer systems for industrial process control.
Running computer departments
→ Participating in research groups
→ Doing infrastructure maintenance
→ Designing, selecting and evaluating the logics and computing infrastructure
→ Computer applications analysis
→ Administrating advanced computer systems
→ Integrating systems
→ Managing and operating with information
→ Teaching computer related matters

The good news for you is that Software / IT industry is on a high and you have loads of opportunities in this field.

If you are talented enough , IT industry will embrace you with both hands.

Presently Bangalore , Hyderabad , Pune , Gurgaon , Noida , chennai , Delhi are some of the cities best for software development.

My suggestion would be to complete any one of the professional courses like B.E. , BCA, B.Tech , MCA etc. T
hese courses are recognized in most of the companies.

Try to master yourself in one of the popular languages / platforms like Java, C++, .Net, C, SQL server etc.

Java and .Net are extensively used in companies ( MNCs) . Both are used for Product development as well as web applications.

Finally salary.

First of all I want to tell you one thing if you are really talented than salary wont be a constraint for you.

Hi Suman,

Being in this field for so many years and taking candidates for my company. I could tell you that the prospect of CSE students are very bright in near future. Though MBA students are also preferred.
