Notes

Polytechnic is most commonly used to refer to schools, colleges, or universities that qualify as institutes of technology or vocational universities (also sometimes called universities of applied sciences).

Computer Science & Engineering (CSE) is an academic program at many universities which compromises scientific and engineering aspects of computing. CSE is also a term often used in Europe to translate discipline of informatics.

Civil engineering is the professional practice of designing and developing infrastructure projects. This can be on a huge scale, such as the development of nationwide transport systems or water supply networks, or on a smaller scale, such as the development of single roads or buildings.

Electrical and electronics engineering both focus on applications of electrical power. The two fields differ in that electrical engineers chiefly focus on the large-scale production and supply of electrical power, while electronics engineers focus on much smaller electronic circuits, such as those used in computers.

One of the oldest and broadest types of engineering, mechanical engineering is concerned with the design, manufacturing and maintenance of mechanical systems. You’ll study statics and dynamics, thermodynamics, fluid dynamics, stress analysis, mechanical design and technical drawing.
