The Department of Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) was formed in 1999. The Department started its journey with an intake of 60 for UG program B.Tech in CSE approved by AICTE. The intake was enhanced to 90 in 2010 and further converted to 120 in 2017.The post graduate program M.Tech in CSE was introduced in 2012. The B.Tech-CSE program is one of the most sought after programs of the Institute, one of the reasons being consistently high rate of placement of CSE students through campus interview. Besides large number of students being placed in TCS, Cognizant, Wipro, Infosys and Capgemini, CSE alumni of RCCIIT are working in Google, Microsoft, Amazon and IBM.
The PG program also draws some of the bright academic minds; some of them have recorded top positions in University. The B.Tech-CSE program first got NBA accreditation in 2016 for 3 years. Since then the department adheres to the outcome based education with CO, PO attainment monitored regularly and accordingly improvement on the overall outcome is continuously pursued. There is Departmental Academic Committee (DAC) comprising of all faculty members to look after the regular teaching-learning process while the Departmental Advisory Board (DAB),comprising of external members from industry (e.g. TCS) and research institute (e.g. ISI),guides the department on pedagogical reform, faculty up-gradation, project & research activities etc. B.Tech students are actively involved in doing project/internship/certificate courses and many extra-curricular and co-curricular activities that help in development of practical skills, values and professionalism which they should carry forward in their future career.
We aspire to prepare world class computing professionals who are resourceful and flexible enough to comprehend, develop and innovate in multidisciplinary domains and create opportunities for others.
1.To develop as a top grade department of excellence in Computer Science and Engineering through modern computing technology and outcomes based approach. 2. To boost learning and research environment that will mould students to become innovative engineers. 3. To empower students with modern computing tools to become competent at real world challenges in industry with high ethical standards.
RCC Institute of Information Technology (RCCIIT) was set up in 1999 by the erstwhile Regional Computer Centre (RCC), Calcutta (in JU) as a unique joint venture of NIC, Ministry of Communication & IT, Govt. of India and Dept. of Higher Education, Govt. of West Bengal. In 2003 the lead role of management of RCCIIT was transferred to the State Govt. from Govt. of India.
