The Department of Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) – Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning (AIML) is dedicated to providing undergraduate students with a rigorous and innovative technological education of the highest caliber. Currently, Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning are among the most dynamic and rapidly advancing fields, with cutting-edge educational programs designed to impart knowledge of transformative innovations. The department’s faculty and staff are committed to equipping students with the knowledge and skills in AI, ML, and related disciplines necessary to succeed in today’s technology-driven society.

The world is undergoing a significant transformation due to Industry 4.0, which is characterized by intelligent and autonomous systems powered by Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML). In response, engineering institutions are committed to producing skilled engineers in these rapidly growing fields. To meet this demand, the institute has launched a four-year B.Tech. program in CSE-AIML with an intake of 120 seats, combining traditional core subjects of Computer Science and Engineering with a specialization in AI and ML. Recognizing the increasing importance and career potential in this domain, the institute has also introduced a dedicated B.Tech. in AIML program with 240 seats and an M.Tech. program with 18 seats.

The curriculum, developed in consultation with leading industry experts and academic institutions, encompasses a wide range of relevant topics and is supported by well-equipped modern laboratories. To stay aligned with technological advancements and evolving industry needs, the syllabus is reviewed and updated every two years to bridge the gap between academia and industry.

Students are encouraged to participate in various multidisciplinary projects, skill development initiatives, and holistic learning activities to enhance their technical competence, soft skills, and professional ethics. With the rising demand for engineers proficient in AI, job opportunities are expanding across diverse sectors. Research suggests that Artificial Intelligence could create up to 58 million new jobs in the near future.
