Be civil and nice.
Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.

Generally, but I am likely missing some stuff:

Computer Science: The underlying theory around making efficient computer software (I would consider the hardware side computer engineering)

Information Technology: the process of managing computer software and hardware systems for an organization

Software Engineering: the process of developing software including writing code, prioritizing features / bug fixes

Tech Support: part of IT. Troubleshooting and resolving issues with an organizations hardware and software systems
