The department of Information Technology was established in the year 2002 and presently it has an intake capacity of 120 students. With its dedicated team of qualified and experienced faculty, the department’s vision is to create globally competent manpower for the Information and Communication Technology (ICT) industry. The Department is permanently affiliated to Anna University, Chennai and accredited by NBA. The department has received research grants from various funding agencies like AICTE, ISRO, ICMR, CSIR, DST, DRDO, IEI, TNSCST,RGNIYD, INSA to imbibe students with research projects and hosting conferences, technical events that bring together experts and delegates from leading industries. In order to cope with the global requirements the Department provides Centre of Excellence by establishing an IoT integrated laboratory, Networking in collaboration with CISCO, RedHat Academy, ORACLE, Linux and Open Source, Cloud Computing and Advanced Web Development in association with AICTE – LITE.
The department is functioning with Professional bodies like IEI and CSI student’s chapters. The faculty members have published research papers in various reputed journals and authored books in renowned publications. IBM Career Education collaborates with our Institution and ours is the first institution to have a tie-up in the Coimbatore region to offer integrated courses by IBM professionals to launch Data Science specialization track under B.Tech - IT. The commitment of the faculty in pursuing excellence in their academic field and inspiring students to do their best has attracted leading companies looking for the best talent. Around 75% of the students are offered with their dream jobs in top MNC companies.
