B.Tech. Computer Science and Engineering (CSE)

The traditional curriculum in Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) has focused on two major areas, i.e., theory and systems (viz. database, computer hardware, and operating systems). With the advent of the era of Edge Computing, Cloud Computing, Cyber Security, Artificial Intelligence (AI), and Big Data, the discipline has now transformed into one that is instrumental in solving major real-world problems faced by modern society such as healthcare, security, sustainability, and socio-economic challenges. The new B.Tech programme in CSE will prepare its students to tackle problems which are fundamentally multidisciplinary in nature, through the application of core Computer Science skills. Which in turn would enhance IIT Jodhpur’s contribution to providing solutions towards an Atma Nirbhar and Viksit Bharat, and global Sustainable Development Goals.

The new curriculum in B.Tech. in CSE at IIT Jodhpur has aimed to be balanced in its theoretical and practical offerings, and is broadly organized around 3 focus areas:

B.Tech. Artificial Intelligence and Data Science (AIDE)

This BTech program combines two broad areas, Artificial Intelligence and Data Science, while building a strong foundation in Computer Science. Artificial Intelligence (AI) aims to create machines to act with higher levels of intelligence and emulate the human capabilities of sense, comprehend and act. On the other hand, Data Science (DE) is the art of generating insight, knowledge and predictions by processing data pertaining to a system or a process. As the demand for these areas increases, there is also an increasing need for building the future workforce for Artificial Intelligence and Data Science. IIT Jodhpur will offer this unique program to develop the Artificial Intelligence and Data Science ecosystem in the country. The curriculum includes courses in computer science, mathematics, artificial intelligence, machine learning, and their applications in various domains.
