I am a Telecommunications Engineer by qualification which is closely related to NOC 2147 Computer Engineer's job description and qualification. Now I have following question related to this:

Can anyone tell how many points should I get for NOC Code 2147(Computer Engineer) under Express Entry system?

What should I select in Level of Education?

Is this skill level A?

points are awarded on number of years of experience and level of education.
NOC list matters close to nothing now! As far as you're in 0 , A or B. you're good to go!

So what should I select in the section "Level of Education" which comes under Education History?

I have taken the eligibility test and it is showing higher score than my actual EE Profile, so I suspect wrong selection under "Education Level" in my profile.

Basically I have to select from below two options:

1. Bachelor's Degree or a three or more year program at a university, college, trade or technical school or other institute

2. Master's degree or professional degree needed to practice in a licensed profession

Anyone who could support in this matter, for the above mentioned requirement?
It would help if we knew what your actual education level was.

Also, it depends on what your ECA comes back with as the Canadian Equivalent of your education, I've seen examples of some people that had obtained bachelor degrees in India, but after an ECA it is reported as equivalent to a 2 year post-secondary program or something.

So you're telling us you've got a bachelor's degree and asking us if you should select bachelor's or master's degree for your EE profile? Well what do you think? A bachelor's degree will get you 128 points in the category "level of education" (150 is the max but that's for people with PhDs).

I have selected "Bachelor's Degree or a three or more year program at a university, college, trade or technical school or other institute", my spouse is also included in my application. And the score that i received is: CRS - Human Capital - Level of Education 112

What should be my score? Have i selected correct level of education?

That may not be true because they are classifying according to education level, i believe.
And probably I have made wrong selection "under level of education", because im not sure if Computer Engineering is considered as a Bachelor Degree or a Professional Degree in Canada.

no you selected the right one. your points are lower as your spouse is included in your application. Different point system for single people and people with spouses.
