Computers & Computers

The other day I was reading some prospectus and other related material for admission in engineering colleges in Maharashtra. I would have never bothered about these colleges but this time my younger dotty is one of the aspirant. So I have to read all this! I believe that there are only 5 or 6 engineering colleges in Maharashtra who really teach something substantial of the subject for which the students have taken admission in that college. Of course "my college" i.e. VJTI, Matunga, Mumbai, is one of them and I am very proud of that. After reading all that material, this is what came to my mind:
What is the difference between Computer Engineering, Computer Technology, Computer Science, Computer Applications, Computer Systems, Information Technology etc. etc.... blah blah blah. Do they really have academically qualified and experienced teachers to teach all this in its real sense to our kids?
I passed with Mechanical Engineering way back in 1981; so for me all this is nothing more than "computerwallhs". :)
