B.Tech. Information Technology
About the Department
- The Department of B.Tech. Information Technology (IT) was established in the year 2023 with the aim of providing inclusive technology education to students, and thereby creating responsible citizens who would be a globally competent individuals contributing to the betterment of their families, society and nation. IT department started with UG Program with a sanctioned intake of 30 students. Based on the infrastructure facility and faculty strength, the department was accorded approval by AICTE, New Delhi and affiliated to Anna University, Chennai to offer UG Programme.
- The Department has the state-of-the-art facilities for various laboratories, a well- equipped seminar hall, Wi-Fi enabled campus to support e-Learning, and a department library. The department laboratories are interconnected through a well-designed seamless network with Internet facility with the speed of 155 Mbps to facilitate the student’s access to web resources. The Department has highly qualified, competent, committed and experienced faculty members. Our students involve in developing the solutions for real time industrial problems and participate in national level and international level competitions and brought laurel to the department.
- Information Technology (IT) is one of the popular courses among engineering aspirants which mainly focuses on computation, analysis of algorithms, programming languages, program design, software engineering, computer hardware, computer networks and problem solving skills. This program has roots in electrical, electronics and communication engineering, mathematics, and linguistics. Students study the design, development and analysis of software and hardware used to solve problems for various business, scientific and social contexts. Since computers solve most of the complex problems in a simplified way, it provides the sophistication to the world and touches the human lives in all the aspects such as education, transportation, entertainment, banking, mass communication, social media, hospital management, businesses, supply chain management, etc. Information Technology is inherently a interdisciplinary subject, it link to the disciplines including psychology, biology, mathematics, physics, education, art and music with the subjects of bioinformatics, electronics, operations research, theory of computation, help students to understand how Information Technology fits in to a wide range of domains in the world.
- This program prepares the students for career as Software Developers, Hardware Engineers, System Designer, System Analyst and Architect, Networking Engineers and Administrators, Database Administrator, web developers, Project Team Associate and Leaders etc. This program enable the students to acquire multidimensional approach of computing knowledge and understanding the problems to solve deep, imagination and sensitivity to a variety of concerns. The courses such as computer graphics, artificial intelligence, human computer interaction, robotics, database management, web technology, network security, grid and cloud computing and cyber security are applied to analyse and design the solutions to the real time complex problems such as development of computer models and software to improve education, 3D graphics to visualize historical artifacts, developing, understanding natural language, analysing medical images, using computers to produce art, and developing algorithms to support advanced network technologies.
