Information Technology is defined as the study of the science of computing, data storage, data analysis and communications. The recent developments in computer technology, wireless and satellite communication and the communication explosion through Internet, are bound to make a marked change in the way businesses are done and the way we lead our lives. These form the crux of "Information Technology" - the technology of the coming decades.
IT Engineers solve technical, organisational and management problems involving information - collecting information, storing it, retrieving it from storage and using it. Computer programs, databases, application programs, communication networks, analysis and design methods, programming languages are some of the major tools that IT Engineers work with.
Job opportunities
The Information Technology sector is growing at a rapid pace and companies are experiencing a critical need to recruit staff at all levels. This course will provide students with the technical skills necessary to pursue a long and varied career in the Information Technology sector. Specifically they will be able to gain employment in roles such as software developer and software engineer, or as supervisor/manager in organisations which make extensive use of computer-based systems, including manufacturing, financial and service industries. Many IT engineers also get placed in software companies as computer programmers and systems analysts.
Faculty
The department has a rare blend of very dynamic youngsters guided by a group of eminent and experienced professors.
About the department
The Department has a state-of-the-art computer laboratory with more than 350 computers (all PIVs) with latest hardware and software.
