flashNew Course Offered in the Academic Year 2023-24 B.Tech. Artificial Intelligence and Data Science*

B.Tech. Information Technology

About the Department

The impact of Technological advancements in human life is not complete without the role of Information Technology, along all axes. Hence all pervading nature of Information Technology is culminated with huge demand for education in the said field. The steady rise in the number of students opting to specialize in Information Technology is a testimony for that. Education in Information technology imparts the knowledge through which the needs of users within an organizational and societal context can be met.

Information technology is perhaps the most dynamic discipline of engineering today with far-reaching impact on business, science, government, social structures and even personal lives. As an academic discipline, IT focuses on meeting the needs of users through the selection, creation, application, integration and administration of computing technologies.

The department of Information Technology at the Vivekanandha College of Technology for Women Campus was started in 2011. The undergraduate program aims to prepare students for the challenges that they will face as professionals.

The department has consistently produced university rank holders. Our teaching- learning process aims to mould students to survive in the industry and also motivate them to pursue their higher studies. Special placement training activities are conducted for the students and special training for final year students and our students have excelled in the field of current projects and the Department also encourages the students to do mini projects and to present technical papers.
