Subject: A long report on Software Engineering & Computer Science
Dear madam:
A report on Software Engineering & Computer Science is submitted to you as a part
of report writing course .
Software Engineering and Computer science is a discipline that involves the understanding
and design of computers and computational processes.
In its most general form it is concerned with the understanding of information transfer and
transformation. Particular interest is placed on making processes efficient and endowing them
with some form of intelligence.
The discipline ranges from theoretical studies of algorithms to practical problems of
implementation in terms of computational hardware and software.

I am very thankful for your support and corporation

Abstract
The topic on which we have decided to write our long report is Software Engineering &
computer Science. Today these fields are growing up-to the rank, scope of these fields now a
days are very enhanced. A technical work with lots of knowledge challenges to better up the
required skill. Technology is increasing constantly without any break and market needs
software engineers and computer scientist to work in the digital world . The main concept is
to provide a complete knowledge for acquiring the righteous choice and to accelerate in the
field.
