Skill-Lync

With the increase in digitalization and the presence of computers almost everywhere, many students choose computer science engineering (CSE) as a preferred educational course. The students learn the basics of computer science, development, design, and implementation of ideas, and about computer software and hardware. However, after completing their engineering, they are still puzzled when selecting a career option. 

There is no doubt that the job prospects of skilled and trained computer engineering professionals are increasing every day. Computer science is a vast field, and there is a range of career options to choose from. You can go for higher studies in the field or pursue jobs related to computer science.

In any case, it is always important to update your learning skills. In the current scenario, several businesses are shifting to online mode and always need computer professionals to build their websites or applications. However, the more you develop your skills, the better you get a grip on different problem-solving skills using computers. Try to attain proficiency in some core skills and programming or coding languages like Java, C++, Python, C#, and PHP. Once you are thorough with these skills, it is time to get into mainstream computer science jobs.

 

Career options

Some of the best computer science career options are listed below. After completing advanced computer science courses, you can choose any of these career options based on your professional preferences.

 

1. Software developer

As the name suggests, software developers create technologies that we use in our everyday life. We use several applications on our smartphones like social media, personal calendars, banking applications, music applications, and much more. These creative minds use their technical expertise to develop new ideas that can change how the world functions.

Based on the input from their clients, software developers work on different applications and devices. The job requires a good grip on technical skills, including Python, JavaScript, Linux, Oracle, SQL, Git, and DevOps. The estimated median salary of software developers in India is around ₹ 7 lakh per annum. 

 

2. Data analyst

Data analysts are often misunderstood as data scientists. Both have overlapping skills, but they are different job roles. Data analysts collect data and information from social media, websites, and blogs. They are involved in data mining, inspection, analysis, and generation of reports. Data analysts can further develop skills and become data scientists. 

 

3. Data scientist

If you are an ardent lover of math, statistics, and big data, then this can be your path ahead. Cleaning up the messy data and changing it into relevant user information is what data scientists work on. Several businesses have realized the power of big data and have used them to improve their business. Data scientists are in demand to give meaning to large sets of data or information. They use the data refined by data analysts and infer insights from it to understand market trends and customer preferences.

The average salary of data scientists is around ₹ 10 lakh per annum at entry-level and increases to ₹ 18 lakh per annum for experienced and skilled data scientists. 

 

4. Full-stack developers

Full-stack developers are software developers who attend to the front-end and back-end needs of applications or websites. Front-end developers look into the aesthetic aspects, while the back-end developers look into the logistics and functionality of the product. Full-stack developers do both and more. 

Full-stack developers need to be proficient in coding languages like Python, Ruby, HTML, and JavaScript. They earn a base salary of ₹ 6.5 lakh in a year. However, the range varies based on the country. Skill Lync's 8-month computer science course will teach you everything you need to know to become a competent full-stack developer.

 

5. Information security or cybersecurity analyst

Information is very important in current times. Protecting companies' critical information from hackers and cybercriminals is essential for any business. Information or cybersecurity analysts have to stay one step ahead of the hackers. They are involved in analyzing the robustness of the software, performing risk assessments, and ensuring that vital information is secure.

Experienced information security analysts’ average yearly salary in India is around ₹ 6-10 lakh per annum. 

 

6. Computer network architects

Computer network architects plan and build communication networks like  LAN, WAN, and intranet. They understand the needs of the business and lay out the data communication network. They decide on the requirement of network drivers or routers needed and maintain them for the smooth functioning of the business. Every field of work related to services needs computer network architects. 

 

7. Machine learning engineer

Machine learning engineering is an upcoming field of computer science. It deals with building intelligent machines designed to perform tasks like humans. Machine learning engineers use data and information to create algorithms that are fed into machines for completing tasks. Developing Artificial Intelligence systems involves analysis, assessment, organization of data, and execution of tests that help develop machine learning models. Machine learning engineers are creative and curious. They are efficient problem-solvers and develop approaches to ease the work that are time-consuming and repetitive for humans to perform.

 

Best career options after completing computer science engineering

 

The average yearly salary of machine learning engineers is around ₹ 8-10 lakh per annum in India.

 

8. Blockchain developer

Blockchain is a database recording that is shared in a network. The information is stored in a digital format, especially in cryptocurrency systems. The blockchain system helps in maintaining a secure record of all transactions. Blockchain developers use different programming applications to design blockchains that are secure from hacking and cyberattacks. The average yearly salary of a blockchain developer is around ₹ 6 to 10 lakh per annum in India. 

 

In a nutshell

The different job roles and career options in computer science engineering give freshers the freedom to choose. The opportunities related to computer science engineering are rewarding. All you need is the skills and training that can help you deal with daily situations. You need to enhance your skills with different computer science courses and stay updated with what’s new in the field. Some short computer science courses can also be pursued after their 12th examinations. 

So, gear up, and take charge of your career. Skill Lync provides short and long computer science courses and training for both new and experienced computer engineers. You can choose an advanced course and master the skills of your preferred job role.
