History and Growth of the Department

The Department of Computer Science and Engineering was established in 1987. Initially, it was conducted on short term courses. The M.Tech programme was introduced in the year 2010. Currently, it has seven experienced faculty members. The department offers M.Tech. in Computer Science and Engineering for officers from DRDO, the services, and the general public, MS by Research and Ph.D. programme. The current plan is outlined to understand, assimilate & use the advanced technologies to design and develop software and hardware. Department started M.Tech. in Computer Science and Engineering with a specialization in Cyber Security from July 2011.

The programme’s objective is to develop human resources in the field of Cyber Security with a thrust on defense-related problems. Advanced technologies from four different domains like wired and wireless networking, Cryptography, Digital Forensic techniques have been selected. The course also introduces the concepts of Network Centric Warfare and Information Security Management Systems. After the end of the course, the student can understand various advanced technologies related to Information Security, Incident Responses, Digital Evidence Analysis, Cyber Attacks, Design, and Development of secure systems.

Vision of the Department:
