School of Computer Science

and Engineering
Engineering Minor
• A set of four courses in an engineering stream to develop a
competency within or outside the discipline area (e.g. a computer
science engineering student choosing Cyber Security or Machine
Learning or a mechanical engineering student taking courses from
computer science engineering or as his/her engineering minor area).

• These Engineering Minors are being offered so that each student


would have at least one major skills by the end of 7th term.
Engineering Minor
• Students are expected to provide his/her choice of Engineering Minor
area only once and the set of courses of that particular area would get
registered in pre-defined terms (5th, 6th and 7th).
Engineering Minors in School of Computer Science
and Engineering:
1. Cyber Security
2. Data Science
3. Machine Learning
4. MEAN Stack Development (Not for IT students)
5. Software Methodologies and Testing
Cyber Security
Brief Description
Cyber security transform into a frightening new reality, one where
corporate and government organizations seem helpless to stop cyber
incursions that leads to cyber risk. To mitigate the cyber risk we need
knowledge of cryptographic techniques, traffic monitoring and ethical
hacking knowledge for better understanding of security issues to
protect our network.
