Message from Head of the Department

Dr. Neeraj Kumar

I, on the behalf of the CSED family, welcome all of you in the department. 

The world of computer science is one of constant evolution, and here at Thapar, we ensure that our students are not just consumers of technology, but innovators, creators, and leaders of the future.  Our department stands proud of its rich legacy, cutting-edge research, and strong industry collaborations. We are constantly striving to provide a curriculum that is not in sync with current trends, but also prepares our students for the future — be it theoretical computer science, artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, data science, quantum computing, or other emerging computing paradigms. Every student has some inherent capabilities to apply their domain knowledge to solve real-world complex problems. We are committed to train the students in different emerging technologies during their stay in Thapar so that they can return back their contributions to the society and country at large.

We have carefully crafted our undergraduate program to offer elective focus in twelve major areas of computing which includes Cyber Security and Ethical Hacking (In Collaboration with EC Council), Data Science (In Collaboration with Coursera), Robotics and Edge Artificial Intelligence (AI) (In Collaboration with NVIDIA), Conversational Artificial Intelligence (AI) (In Collaboration with NVIDIA), Information and Cyber Security (In Collaboration with Thrivedx, Israel), Financial Derivative (In Collaboration with Future First Academy), Full Stack (Xebia Academic Alliance), DevOps and Continuous Delivery (Xebia Academic Alliance), High Performance Computing, Computer Animation and Gaming, Mathematics and Computing and Intelligent Transportation systems with Volvo. With these choices, we hope to fulfil the requirement of the industry as well as quench the thirst of budding professionals. Apart from these, design projects throughout the program highlight life-long outcome-based, research led teaching pedagogy. 

In addition to undergrad programs, postgraduate programs are also very well designed according to the requirements of industry. Students enrolled in M.E/MCA/ and Ph.D. programs have made tremendous contributions in research publications at top level conferences and seminars around the globe. Moreover, for the benefits of the society, they are also involved in various social work related problems by applying their domain knowledge to solve real-world critical problems. CSED faculties are working on various government and industry sponsored projects with UG/PG students and faculties from the other departments. In this way, knowledge sharing and team building is enhanced for the future. 

We are situated in a new learning block at TIET, exhibiting state-of-the-art lab/research infrastructure unparalleled in this part of the world. This infrastructure houses 27 undergraduate/postgraduate laboratories, 15 research/doctoral student labs and a data centre; leading to more incubations, creative ideations and computing professionals coming out of the portals of the CSE department.
In case you still strive to know more, we shall be more than happy to reply to your queries.
