Hi Aspirant,

I thing you want to be appear in Civil Service exam conducted by UPSC.

CS Exam is organized once in a year for the recruitment of post of IAS, IPS or IRS etc.

Friend you computer science is not include in the list of optional subject for mains exam.

So you will have to choose some other subject. Here I write the list of optional subject published by UPSC.

Agriculture

Animal husbandry & vetinary science

Anthropology

Botany

Chemistry

Civil engineering

Commerce and accountancy

Economics

Geography

Indian History

Law

Management

Mathematics

Mechanical engineering

Medical science

Philosophy

Physics

Political science & international relations

Psychology

Sociology

Statistics

Zoology


Friend it would be some difficult to choose the subject for you because no subject belong to your stream.

In such case you should choose in which you are interested and you have studied at Intermediate level like Physics, chemistry, Bio, History and Geography.

I think History, Geography and Psychology are good as optional subject.

This subject will also help you in the paper of general studies.

The paper of general study is included in prelims exam as well as mains exam.

So it will be very helpful for the study of general science and will cover your one subject.

Brood over my suggestion, it will be really helpful for you.

Best of Luck…
