Programming begins in the first semester through Computer Programming-I and continues with Object Oriented Programming in C++ in Semester II. Later semesters introduce data structures and algorithms, web technologies, database systems, operating systems, embedded systems, advanced object-oriented programming, network programming, and software engineering.
The curriculum also keeps a hardware and systems component. Students study Basic Electrical System & Circuit, Electronics Devices & Circuits, Digital Logic, Microprocessor & Assembly Language, Computer Organization, Communication System, Data Communication, Computer Network, and Wireless Communication System.
Several subjects contain dedicated practical hours. This means practical work is embedded within individual courses rather than appearing only as a separate final-year requirement.
A notable structural feature of the program is the presence of a project in every semester.
Project-II requires students to develop a small-scale software project using C++. Students work in groups of up to four, moving through topic selection, information gathering, system requirements, algorithms and flowcharts, coding, implementation, documentation, report submission, and oral presentation.
Project-V focuses on web-based application development using server-side scripting. Students work in groups of up to three and complete an application, written report, and oral presentation.
Project-VI and Project-VII continue into application development using software engineering practices, relational database management systems, and object-oriented programming. Their assessment includes presentations, project work, documentation, and viva. Semester VIII concludes with a four-credit Application Project.
The seventh and eighth semesters allow students to take elective subjects.
Elective-I options include:
GIS
Multimedia System
Cloud Computing
Distributed Processing
Theory of Computation
Internet and Intranet
Simulation and Modeling
Elective-II options include:
Remote Sensing
Multimedia Communication
E-Governance
System Administration
Design and Analysis of Algorithm
Network Security and Cryptography
Image Processing and Pattern Recognition
These electives appear alongside advanced compulsory subjects and the final stages of project work.
Across eight semesters, students work with several connected areas of information technology:
Programming and object-oriented development
Data structures and algorithms
Computer hardware and digital systems
Database management
Web technology
Computer networking and data communication
Operating systems
Computer graphics
Embedded systems
Data mining and data warehousing
Artificial Intelligence
Software engineering
Management Information Systems
Research methodology
E-commerce
Software project management
The curriculum also contains Principles of Management, Financial Management & Accounting, Marketing Management, MIS, and Software Project Management, giving students exposure to organizational and management subjects alongside technical study.
