'''Computer scienceScience and engineeringEngineering''' ('''CSE''') is an academic programdiscipline at many [[University|universities]] whichthat comprisescombines computerprinciples scienceof classes[[Computer (e.g. data structuresscience|scientific]] and algorithms) and computer[[Computer engineering|engineering]] classesaspects (e.g computer architecture). There is no clear division inof [[computing]] betweento sciencedesign, and engineeringdevelop, justand likemaintain in the field of [[materials sciencesoftware and engineering]]hardware systems. CSE is also a term often used in [[Europe]] to translate the name of [[engineering informatics]] academic programs. It is offered as academic program in both [[Undergraduate education|undergraduate]] as well [[Postgraduate education|postgraduate]] with specializations.<ref name="mit-6-3">{{Cite web|title=Computer Science and Engineering (Course 6-3) < MIT|url=http://catalog.mit.edu/degree-charts/computer-science-engineering-course-6-3/|access-date=2021-10-31|website=catalog.mit.edu}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=What is Computer Science Engineering? - A Detailed Guide |url=https://www.bmu.edu.in/social/what-is-computer-science-engineering/ |access-date=2023-10-29 |website=BML Munjal University |language=en-US}}</ref>

== Academic courses ==

Academic programs vary between colleges, but typically include a combination of topics in [[Engineering mathematics]], [[computer science]], [[computer engineering]], and [[electrical engineering]]. [[Undergraduate education|Undergraduate]] courses usually include [[Digital electronics]] and [[Network analysis (electrical circuits)|circuit analysis]], [[Computer programming|programming]], [[algorithmsData structure|data structures]] and [[dataalgorithmics|algorithms structuresdesign]],[[Database Management System|database systems]], [[computer architecture]], [[operating systems]], [[Computer network|computer networks]], [[parallel computing]], [[embedded systems]], [[algorithmics|algorithms design]], [[Network analysisProcessor (electrical circuitscomputing)|circuit analysisprocessor]] anddesign, [[electronicssoftware engineering]], [[digital logic]]signal and [[Processor (computing)|processorprocessing]] design, [[computer graphics (computer science)|computer graphics]], [[scientific computing]], [[software engineering]], [[database|database systems]], [[digital signal processing]], [[virtualization]], [[computer simulation]]s and [[game programming|games]] programming. CSE programs also include core subjects of theoretical computer science such as [[theory of computation]], [[Compiler design]], [[numerical methods]], [[machine learning]], [[programming language theory|programming theory]] and [[Programming paradigm|paradigms]].<ref>{{Cite web|date=2020-08-08|title=GATE CS 2021 (Revised) Syllabus|url=https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/gate-cs-2021-revised-syllabus/|access-date=2021-06-20|website=GeeksforGeeks|language=en}}</ref> Modern academic programs also cover emerging computing fields like [[image processing]], [[data science]], [[robotics]], [[bio-inspired computing]], [[computational biology]], [[autonomic computing]] and [[artificial intelligence]].<ref>{{cite web|title=Courses in Computer Science and Engineering {{!}} Paul G.
