Well I ll move back to India after a few years...so here the BE is a better degree than bsc in cs... So I opted fr it...
moreover I would prefer spending 4 yrs for BEng than bsc...

B.Eng is more of electronics rather than computers,Are you from Mumbai btw.I want to go into more of a computers course focusing more on software.And only stupid companies look at what course have you done.Good ones in India look at the university and your grades preferably a 2:1 is good to get a 10 lakh p.a job
