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.
B. Tech. (ECE) started with 60 seats in 2006 to produce quality engineers in the field of IT and allied technologies commensurate with the vision of the Institution. Intake increased from 60 to 120 in 2010 to fulfill the requirement of quality engineers as perceived by the market trends (Lateral entry is 10% of 1st year intake in UG 2nd year)

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.
