Welcome back to my channel.

This video.

I'm doing investigative research on the difference between software engineering and computer science.

So if you're interested, please stay tuned.

Okay, So some programs in American and Canadian universities have both software engineering and computer science degree.

Whoa, Right.

Like, what's the difference?

So I thought, Why, when I investigate what the difference is if they're resenting and share my research journey with you first, I looked at the weekend definition for both off these terms.

Computer science is the theory, experimentation and engineering that form the basis off the design and use of computers.

Software engineering is the application of engineering to the department off software in a systematic method.

Okay, so looks like the definition of computer science really emphasizes the theory.

While the definition off software engineering really emphasizes the application that I decided to email professors at my alma mater to ask for their opinion, it's good to have the opinion both from the academic field as well as from the actual application fuel.

So I decided to go ahead and ask my friends, What do they think?

On what the difference between software engineering and computer science is, if there was any I know on my weight Hey, tree on to see my friend Jarvis manager there, and I hope you will share his thoughts about Hey, first of all, in school.

They're different majors sometimes, but it really depends on the curriculum of the school.

I think the dictionary definition would be that a software engineer is more based on the practical application of software, which includes some computer science fundamentals.

And computer scientists would be more theoretical, based on the like theory of computer science.

But when it comes to industry like a computer scientist is like a like a scientist who's like doing doing research often like in academia, like working, you know, at a university like a research university where I went to school, George Attack has a big has a big research function, and there's a lot of people doing computer science research there.

And then they're softer engineering, which is just like making stuff that you're like Google's in Facebook's in the world.

So, yeah, I think there is a difference, but only much later on in your career.

What you studying under grad computer science versus softer engineering isn't ultimately gonna make a difference on, like the type of jobs you get, because I've never met a recruiter that, like different shades between those two things, because they vary so widely between different schools, I also asked more friends to see what they think on the matter.

I don't think there's a difference anymore.

I think that there used to be a difference in university.

You could spend more time in computer science diving into a particular area.

Where I saw friends during was a little bit more structure and you had a little bit less choice in terms of which electives we could take in terms of jobs which you get afterwards.

It's all pretty much all the same.

I feel like the most important thing for software engineers experience.

Still like it's something you just kind of have to do it.

You have to, like, work on projects like build things to kind of really understand.

The first thing that sticks out to me is the science versus engineering where science is more about knowledge versus engineering is the applying that knowledge to make something happen in the real world.

And lastly I decided to go on the streets off San Francisco, the American Tech hub, and ask the people if they had any opinion on the matter.

Computer sciences, overall computers, and then suffered.

Engineering.

Is, are the people who actually do the Cody and make computers work for engineering?

Sounds a lot more specific, like they're actually building something.

Computer science could be just studying.

Yeah, it's like a sign, like a study versus E.

I don't think there's any difference.

I never gave much thought, I don't know, but my guess would be a better scientist or science.

I just heard back from my professor, and he elaborated from the academic university curriculum standpoint, If you are a study in software engineering, it's a fully qualified engineering degree in Canada and has a much more rigid curriculum where his computer signs has a little more freedom in the courses you select.

Talk to.

A lot of people heard a lot of different opinions, but I would say there is a few common themes.

Computer science is a degree is more theory.

Science driven software engineering is more geared towards application and actual applying that theory to really life scenarios.

In some schools, computer science and software engineering names of the Grease Aral Sea interchangeable.

I would encourage you to look at the actual curriculum to see what is more interesting for you.

However, when it comes to the industry, it doesn't really matter whether you studied one or the other or didn't even study anything related.

What matters is your real experience.

If you want to be a researcher, you want Thio.

Study is something more theoretical.

You will probably have to get a master's or a PhD in computer science or related fields.
