A degree in computer science engineering can be an individual for top-notch jobs with high lucrative salaries that will help one build a strong career and enable one to study a field that one is truly passionate about. Let’s check out some of the top reasons to choose computer science engineering as a career option.

What will you say are the “best practices” in the course you’re offering?

“Providing Students with various practical and hands-on Projects”

Faculty members of computer science and engineering use components like RAM, Hard Disk Drive, Network cables, motherboards, and other components of a computer system in the classroom as physical models. The use of these models helps the teachers to create a clear-cut understanding among the students about the working of various components of a computer system. While teaching subjects like web technologies, java programming, and mobile application development the projects developed by the senior students guided by the faculty members are demonstrated in the classroom. The objective of demonstrating these projects is to provide a live experience to the students of how an application works. For example, while teaching sorting techniques in Data Structures simple Flash animations are used. This helps students to comprehend the process beyond any doubt would do better to understand 

the concept behind it.

What are some valuable insights into the program that you are offering at your institute?

“Providing Students with industry-oriented skills”

The most commonly acknowledged type of skills required among computer scientists is the practical abilities that allow them to develop software and digital tools. Some of the top skills in this category include: 

• Programming: This incorporates a deep knowledge of algorithms and data structures, and coding skills in languages like Java, C, Python, and JavaScript. Those hoping to improve their coding skills specifically should consider pursuing formal training in the form of a graduate degree or Bootcamp.
• Mathematics: Alongside a comprehensive understanding of mathematical theory—which is equally as vital for aspiring CS professionals to obtain—knowledge of statistics, calculus, linear algebra, and other advanced mathematical techniques are mandatory for individuals in this field.
• Data Analysis: Basic data analysis skills are important for computer scientists, as data plays a key role in many advanced CS practices, including artificial intelligence (AI), predictive analysis, and more.
• Data Visualization: As crucial as it is to be able to analyze data effectively, it’s also essential that CS professionals can properly visualize data and results in a way that stakeholders can understand. This includes translating raw data into graphs, charts, and other visual tools to help communicate findings.
• Ethics: As technology continues to advance—especially with tools like artificial intelligence and machine learning—professionals in this field must develop an understanding of ethics and its impact on computer science.

How does the program ensure that students are being prepared for the future?

“Providing students with the knowledge of Algorithm, Programming, and Operating System”

Here are the core things that Computer science Students learn during the course and being prepared for the future-ready :

• Core math courses for the physical sciences and engineering. This includes Calculus, Linear Algebra, and Differential Equations. Added to this is discrete mathematics.
• Programming. A department oriented more towards software engineering will include more options for languages and systems. This should include procedural, object-oriented, and functional programming models.
• Theory of computation: Computation models, recursive function theory, automata theory, computability.
• Algorithms. Common algorithms. Analysis of algorithms -- how to characterize the performance characteristics on algorithms (i.e. time and space complexity).
• Data structures. Common data structures are used to represent data. Their performance characteristics and applications.
• Operating System principles. Fundamentals of cooperating sequential programs, resource management, synchronization, inter-process communication, and scheduling.
• Computer System Architecture. Logic design and common digital computer organization.

How did you train yourself/faculty to deliver this program to the students?

“Exploring and implementing all the ways of effective teaching”

We have three methods to deliver the program based on the interest of the students. First is the lecture method, the second is the interaction method and the last is recording the videos and sharing the same with students. Even experiments are available live so that students can clear their doubts simultaneously, and they are available in the form of recording as well.

What approach do you have for the placement of the students?

“Providing Students with 100% Placement Assistance”

Our Institute has established a full-fledged Training and Placement Centre (TPC) for facilitating the students for campus placement. Various placement training programs such as solving Aptitude questions, Group Discussion skills, Interview Techniques, Resume preparation, etc., are arranged for all third-year students to equip well to participate in campus recruitment interviews. The Training and Placement Centre makes every effort to network with all segments of industries ranging from Manufacturing to Software. Fruitful relationships with industries are being nourished with utmost care for mutual benefit. Partnerships with reputed national and multinational companies are also initiated for adding value to the competence development process of students.

TPC also provides the Students guidance on higher studies, preparing and writing various entrance examinations like CAT, GATE, GMAT, BEC, GRE, TOFEL to pursue higher education in Engineering, Technology and Management streams.

Do you have any extracurricular activities to enhance the skills of the students?

“Ensuring a balance between Academics and Extracurricular activities of Students”

To establish a balance between extracurricular activities and academics to help students increase their confidence level and self-concept thus contributing to the goodwill of the whole community as responsible citizens. Responsible citizens must cooperate with concerned authorities to help reduce financial barriers which hinder the participation of most students in healthy extracurricular activities and thus providing leadership opportunities and a better future.

How do you tend to build an industry connection with this program?

“Providing Students with various industrial meet, visits, and seminars”

To be successful in the final year internship and for the smoother flow of the course, each subject is thoroughly explained theoretically and practically to the student. Regular industrial visits, webinars, and workshops make the student connect with the live and practical approach of the industry.

Every semester we have a minimum of 2 industrial visits planned for each student depending on the department they are in. They spend an entire day there and prepare reports as well on that, so they get a fair idea about how the industry works.
