• Laboratory Work: Intensive labs dedicated to DSA implementation, practical DBMS query writing, administration and digital circuit simulation.

System Architecture and Networking

The third year delves into the complexities of system software, operating systems and network communication, preparing students for system-level and infrastructure roles.

• Key Subjects:

  • Operating Systems (OS): Detailed study of memory management, process scheduling, concurrency control and file systems. Understanding how a computer manages its resources.
  • Computer Networks: Comprehensive study of data communication principles, network layers (OSI model), protocols (TCP/IP), network security and infrastructure design.
  • Theory of Computation (TOC): Exploring the mathematical limits and capabilities of computation using automata theory, formal languages and complexity classes.
  • Compiler Design: Understanding the structure and process of translating high-level code into optimized machine instructions.

• Practical Focus: Network programming labs, OS configuration and a mandatory Industrial Training/Internship of 6-8 weeks to bridge academic learning with real-world corporate experience and exposure to organizational structure.

Specialization and Capstone Project 

The final year focuses heavily on advanced electives, emerging technologies and a mandatory capstone project that consolidates all acquired skills into a demonstrable professional portfolio.

• Advanced Electives (Specialization Tracks): Students select courses in high-demand areas to specialize, including:

  • Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML): Deep learning frameworks, neural networks, natural language processing (NLP) and computer vision.
  • Cyber Security and Cryptography: Network forensics, ethical hacking, penetration testing, blockchain technology and advanced encryption standards.
