Vision

To be one of the premier departments for achieving excellence in teaching and research with social responsibility and for producing innovative technical graduates in Computer Science and Engineering.

Mission

• To impart Computer Science and Engineering education by utilizing state of the art computing facilities.
• To infuse scholarly inquisitiveness, professional behavior and ethical values among students and research scholars, thereby making an imprint in the technological, economic and social development of the nation.
• To impart high quality professional training of international standards to meet the current and future demands of the industry and academia.
• To develop adequate e-infrastructure, environment and culture for the state-of-the-art research work in Computer Science and Engineering.

Curriculum

The Choice-Based Credit System (CBCS) has been implemented from the year 2006-07. The courses are classified into basic, core and electives. Most of the theory courses are associated with corresponding laboratory courses to ensure that due importance is given for experimental work. Credits are assigned for each course based on the number of instruction hours allotted per week. A wide range of electives is offered for under-graduate students during the last two semesters of study. Further, they undertake application-oriented project works, along with course work, in the last two semesters. The post-graduate students undertake research-oriented study as project work exclusively for 12 months in the second year.

Library

The departmental library houses 2000 (approx) volumes from the disciplines of computer engineering, computer science, information technology and applications. The department subscribes for all IEEE Computer Society journals, magazines, and transactions regularly.

Association of Computer Engineers (ACE)

ACE is a departmental student body which facilitates students to deliver talks on emerging areas of their discipline. Further, it invites reputed academics and practitioners for delivering talks on latest technical topics. In addition, it conducts technical quizzes, group discussions and competitions in software design and development. These activities of ACE help students to improve interpersonal communication, presentation, documentation and organizational skills. It also motivates students to acquire knowledge through self-study and share the same with others.

Higher Studies

At least ten percent of the outgoing students secure high GATE scores and pursue higher studies in IITs and IISc. Another ten percent secure good GRE/ TOEFL scores and go abroad for pursuing higher studies in reputed universities.

Placements and Training

Roughly eighty percent of the students obtain placements in reputed organization like Yahoo, Microsoft, Juno Online, TCS, Infosys, Wipro, Cognizant, Intergraph, Cordys, Virtusa, etc,.The department organizes industrial tours/ visits every year.
