B.Tech The Department runs a four-year B.Tech. programme in Computer Science and Engineering since 1983. Students, for the program, are admitted through the most prestigious UG engineering entrance exam of the country, JEE (Advanced). The program is a mix of fundamental and applied courses leading to different streams Computer Science and Engineering. Apart from learning the concepts of development of skills related to the discipline, the courses are designed in such a way that have broad base of humanities and science courses as well as courses that enable the students to build their character. Hence, overall objective is to provide education to the students with aim to build the student well human with strong character and responsive to demands of society and nature.
Dual Degree (IDD)
Department also offers dual degree i.e., B.Tech. and M.Tech., in Computer Science and Engineering from 2005-06. The students work on a research problem independently leading to M.Tech. Dissertation for a period of one year after completing the four years of B.Tech. programme. They earn their M.Tech. degree along with B.Tech. degree.
M.Tech.
The department starts a full-time M.Tech. program in Computer Science and Engineering. The program considers Artificial Intelligent (AI) and the Internet of Things (IoT) specializations. The program covers core courses, elective courses, and the project. The admission in the program is through GATE.
Ph.D.
The department is actively involved in research in many areas of Computer Science. The focus of the PhD program is on research training with a high degree of specialization.

Specializations

Computer Vision

Digital image processing is the use of computer algorithms to perform image processing on digital images. It allows a much wider range of algorithms to be applied to the input data and can avoid problems such as the build-up of noise and signal distortion during processing.

AI & NLP

AI, NLP and Information Retrieval

Natural language processing (NLP) is a field of computer science, artificial intelligence and computational linguistics concerned with the interactions between computers and human (natural) languages, and, in particular, concerned with programming computers to fruitfully process large natural language corpora.

Networks

Networks

Network group works in different areas of network viz. Network Security, Social Networks, Peer to Peer networks, Wireless Sensor Networks etc.. One interesting problem on which group worked on is Delay Tolerant Proactive Transmission Protocol in collabration with ISRO, SAC, Ahmedabad. The proposed protocol is variation of TCP protocol for deep space (interplanetary internet).

Machine Learning

Machine learning is an area of computer science in which algorithms learn and improve from experience. But systems are not explicitly programmed to do so. It comprises of various sub-fields like supervised learning, unsupervised learning, semi-supervised and reinforcement learning. From web search to bioinformatics machine learning has wide applications.

Software Engineering

Our research group mostly focuses on the area of dependable and smart software development for various types of end-users. We intend to set up a dependable and smart systems development lab that will provide a facility for learning the concepts by researchers, and the same can be used for conducting purposeful research in the area of software development.Our research group mostly focuses on the area of dependable and smart software development for various types of end-users.
