NU is all about fresh perspectives. So is our website.
The area of Computer Science and Engineering at NIIT University has established state-of-the-art undergraduate education and prepares its students as global computer science professionals and researchers. The BTech CSE programme at NIIT University boasts of a curriculum embedded with Full Stack, MERN & MEAN stack, Bigdata, NoSQL, Artificial Intelligence, Natural Language Processing, Machine Learning, Neural Networks and Deep Learning, Internet of Things, Inferential Statistics and Predictive modeling and more to equip students with advanced and futuristic technology skills.
DIFFERENTIATORS
The newly designed curriculum has greater emphasis on design and project work which enrich students’ analytical power and independent thinking capabilities.
In BTech Computer Science, students get opportunities to be involved in exciting, industry relevant projects jointly with world class engineers in collaborative education mode which provides an environment to convert their innovation into reality.
Further, the professional elective courses enable students to develop expertise in specialized areas like Artificial Intelligence, Data Science, Bigdata Engineering, Cyber Security, Cloud Computing and Geomatics in addition to core Computer Science and Engineering courses.
Through, strong industry linkages including a six-month industry practice, students get unique exposure to learn and execute live Industry assignments with best industry practices at onsite Industry Environment (across India) in the final academic year during semester eight, towards fulfilment of degree requirements.
Immersive live R&D project and undergraduate research opportunities encourage students to publish technical papers regularly in reputed journals and conferences under the guidance of dedicated research-oriented faculty members with well blended academic and industrial experience.
Sensibly designed ‘Capstone’ project engagements enable students to be industry ready and highly employable with strong expertise in Git and GitHub, MERN stack (MongoDB, ExpressJS, ReactJS, NodeJS) and MEAN stack (MongoDB, ExpressJS, Angular(.js), NodeJS), DevOps, CD/CI, Containerization with Docker and Kubernetes, APIs and Microservices.
The curriculum gives ample opportunity to students to work in close association with faculty mentors.
