ABOUT CSE

The Department of Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) was set up in July 2009. The department offers Bachelor of Technology (B. Tech.), Master of Science (M. S.) by Research and Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) programmes. From 2023 onwards, the department offers a Master of Technology (M. Tech.) programme. The department adopts a modern approach to teaching wherein students are rendered in adequate academic freedom to innovate and learn in the process. The state-of-the-art facilities including the latest software and advanced hardware are available in various laboratories for use in both teaching and research. This facilitates adequate implementation of major B.Tech., MS (Research) and Ph.D. projects and for verification and validation of research results.

The department benefits from the location of the Institute. Indore is fast developing into a major IT hub in central India. Organizations like CSC and Impetus have a strong presence in the city and major players like TCS, Infosys, and other major IT organisations have set up their offices here. For the Department of CSE, this provides an excellent opportunity to foster industry-academia partnerships.
