Total 60 technical students and 60 non technical students from different colleges of Durg district (C.G.) were taken by using random purposive sampling techniques. After analysis of data result indicates that the technical students are more aware on cyber crime as compare to non technical students because they use more cyber space than non technical students due to their studies curriculum.
