Computer Vision (CS513)

Students study image processing techniques, object detection, face recognition, and video analytics using deep learning models. The course includes lab sessions involving OpenCV, TensorFlow, and PyTorch for implementing vision-based systems.

Natural Language Processing (NLP) (CS514)

This elective covers text preprocessing, sentiment analysis, language modeling, and machine translation. Students work with NLP libraries like NLTK, spaCy, and transformers to build intelligent language understanding systems.

Quantum Computing (CS515)

The course introduces quantum algorithms, quantum circuits, and quantum programming using Qiskit and Cirq. Students explore the potential of quantum computing in cryptography, optimization, and simulation.

Project-Based Learning Philosophy

The department strongly believes in learning through doing. Project-based learning is embedded throughout the curriculum to ensure students gain practical experience while mastering theoretical concepts. Each student must complete mandatory mini-projects in their second and third years, followed by a comprehensive capstone project in the final year.

Mini Projects

Mini projects are undertaken during the second and third semesters, focusing on specific domains such as web development, database design, or algorithm implementation. These projects are evaluated based on creativity, technical depth, documentation quality, and presentation skills. Students are assigned mentors from faculty members to guide them through the process.

Final-Year Thesis/Capstone Project

The final-year project is a significant undertaking that allows students to integrate knowledge from all previous semesters into a cohesive solution. Projects can be individual or team-based, with each group selecting a topic aligned with their specialization track. Students work closely with faculty advisors and industry mentors throughout the process.

Project Selection Process

Students select projects from a curated list provided by the department or propose their own idea after consultation with faculty members. Proposals must demonstrate feasibility, relevance, and alignment with current trends in computer applications. The selection process involves a proposal submission, review by a panel of experts, and approval before commencement.
