Mobile App Development: This elective focuses on developing cross-platform mobile applications using frameworks like React Native or Flutter. Students will design, develop, and deploy apps for Android and iOS platforms.
Data Mining and Warehousing: This course covers data warehousing concepts, ETL processes, OLAP systems, and data mining techniques such as clustering, association rule mining, and classification algorithms.
Internet of Things: The course explores the architecture and implementation of IoT systems, covering sensors, actuators, communication protocols, and cloud integration. Students will build end-to-end IoT solutions using platforms like Arduino and Raspberry Pi.
Project-Based Learning Philosophy
The department strongly believes in experiential learning as a cornerstone of education. Project-based learning is integrated throughout the curriculum, emphasizing collaboration, innovation, and practical application of theoretical knowledge.
Mini-projects are assigned at the end of each semester to reinforce concepts learned in class. These projects allow students to explore real-world problems under faculty guidance and develop solutions using industry-standard tools and methodologies.
The final-year capstone project is a significant component of the program, requiring students to work independently or in teams on complex, interdisciplinary challenges. Students must submit a detailed project report and present their findings to a panel of experts.
Faculty mentors are assigned based on student interests and project requirements. Each project group typically consists of 3-5 students with one faculty advisor overseeing the progress and ensuring quality outcomes.
