School of Computer Science and Engineering (Data Science)
The Department of Computer Science and Engineering (Data Science) [CSE(DS)] at NRI Institute of Technology (A) was established in 2020 to meet industry demands and equip students for careers in Data Science. The department initially admitted 60 students, with the intake expanding to 120 in 2022-23 and 180 in 2023-24.
The Programme was accredited by NBA in the year 2019 under Tier-II. The department has 48 qualified Faculty out of which 5 faculty having Ph.D and 43 having M. Tech. The faculty members actively involve themselves in research activities and published/presented papers in National/International Journals and Conferences.
The B.Tech. program in Computer Science and Engineering (Data Science) [CSE(DS)] adopts an interdisciplinary approach, combining scientific methods, hands-on training, and statistical analysis to solve real-world challenges. As one of the fastest-growing fields, it equips students with industry-relevant skills to develop analytics-driven solutions.
Data Science is a vital part of modern B.Tech education, merging computer science, mathematics, and business intelligence to extract insights from data. As a fast-growing field, it offers high-paying careers in AI, analytics, and automation. By integrating programming, statistics, and machine learning, it equips students with practical skills to solve real-world challenges and drive innovation. This interdisciplinary approach prepares graduates for in-demand roles in tech-driven industries, ensuring they acquire cutting-edge, future-ready expertise in a data-driven world.
The Data Science Department transforms data into insights, driving decision-making, problem-solving, and innovation. It provides a strong foundation in Computer Science and Engineering with specialized expertise in Data Science.
The CSE(DS) department has established the Data Analytics and Research Engineers (DARE) Club to enhance students’ proficiency in Data Analytics by equipping them with essential tools and techniques. The club organizes seminars, technical series (hackathons), technical quizzes, guest lectures, and workshops, providing hands-on learning experiences and insights into emerging trends in Data Science. These activities, conducted at the department and club levels, foster skill development and industry readiness.

The department has state-of-the-art infrastructure and computing equipment worth Rs. 2.7 crores. Internet band width 500Mbps(1:1) leased line is available, supported by SOPHOS Firewall providing security. The department has well established class rooms and Laboratories equipped with LCD/LED Projectors and audio systems.
Quality Initiatives
The department has formed Quality Circles to enhance quality education:
SKILL TRAINING: Students are encouraged to solve problems in various coding platforms Hacker rank, CodeChef, CodeForces, InterviewBit and SPOJ leads to high package placements.
INDUSTRY INSTITUTE INTERACTION: Provide direct training to students by Industry experts on curriculum courses and on latest Technologies.
MoU WITH VARIOUS ACADEMIES: University through which both faculty and students are being certified on Latest technologies.
CENTRES OF EXCELLENCE: In collaboration with Hexaware Technologies and BLACK BUCK were established.
SEMESTER READINESS PROGRAM: Implemented to faculty members for effective delivery of courses.
R&D AND CONSULTANCY: Faculty members are encouraged to involve in Research actively through Research Groups.
Student Development
Students are encouraged to participate in Inter Institute events, Certification Courses – NPTEL, Coursera, Spoken Tutorial – IIT Bombay etc., and National Level Competitions such as Smart India Hackathon (SIH) and various Project Contests at NIT’s and IIT’s. The department has two Student chapters and many events are being organized in association with these chapters.

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
