HOD'S MESSAGE
Welcome to the Department of Artificial Intelligence and Data Science. AI and DS is the skill of the century and has had a massive impact on the society. AI and DS have seen enormous progress and significant breakthrough innovations in practically every field over the last decade. Keeping this in mind, the AI and DS Department was established in the year 2020 with the aim of providing leadership in the field of AI & DS Engineering with an intake of 60 students. The Department is focused on delivering innovative and high-quality technical education in the field of Artificial Intelligence and Data Science. We use the most efficient teaching strategies and promote an inquisitive ethos among the students. We have an outstanding team of talented, and skilled faculty members that are passionate about enhancing students’ learning experiences. It is our constant endeavor to give a strong foundation in areas of computer engineering along with cross disciplinary skills like statistics, mathematical and logical reasoning, knowledge discovery, visualization, big data analytics etc., to our students Aside from cutting-edge curriculum, significant focus has been placed on building a research oriented environment and expanding students’ experiential learning through value-added courses, skill-development programs, and participation in various training programmes offered by reputable organizations and individuals. Students are encouraged to embrace a “desire to learn” culture by the Department. As the Head of department, I am confident that our students will be well-prepared to meet the new and exciting challenges that this new digital era brings.
