Software Engineering Guideline, Inspired by web-developer-roadmap.

We are studying Software Engineering or Related subjects but some of us don't know what we are studying or don't have a guideline or don't know how vast the Software Engineering or IT sector is or We just don't know which path we should choose. Forget choosing path , even we don't know what are the options! So I have tried to give some informations and introduce with terminologies which are related to Software Engineering and IT and can help to know our options and choose them properly!

It's not a roadmap which you should follow and will make you GOD in IT sector. It will just show you some stuffs that can help you to choose your path! I have just use the terms and basic stuffs so that you can google them :p

These X year Y semester are just for remembering that you can give Z months to know these things well though it can vary from person to person and I have just tried to relate these things and time with our Varsity Syllabus and curriculum !

First Year First Semester (means can take about 6 months)

First of all you have to learn about Computer,its pros and cons and basic things.

• Guessing Numbers game (guess a number from 0 to 10 and match randomly)
• Banking Management System Application (Deposite and Widrow money)
• Snake game

Some links of Popular Online Judges are :

• Codeforces
• CodeChef
• Spoj
• UVA
• Hackerrank
• Hackerearth

First Year Second Semester (means can take about 6 months)

• Learn Data Structure and Algorithms

  

• Explore stuffs :

  

  Learn Git

  In our curriculam we have a make a GUI (Graphical User Interface) based Game(for Desktop) using C / C++ Library like SFML ,Opengl,graphic.h

Second Year (means can take about 6 months or one year)

• Deep Drive into Competitve Programming : There is a pdf by @Shahriar(ICPC World Finalist | CSE,SUST) vai ,You can check it out.

  If you like competitive programming and problem solving, then keep solving and ranking up ,take participate in contests

• Learn Things for Software Engineering

  

Now You have known a lot but not everything. As You have a basic knowledge a lot of sectors and probably you can Choose something to deep drive in.

There are a lot of sectors in IT , Here are some of them :
