AI & ML Supported Infrastructure Facilities - NVIDIA DGX A100

The Department has an established NVIDIA AI Learning and Research Centre in collaboration with NVIDIA. The AI Research Centre comprises of High-End Computing facility with NVIDIA DGX A100 server, which is a High-End AI Supercomputer. The DGX A100 is world's first 5 petaflops AI system build on NVIDIA A100 Tensor Core GPU's, Integrating 8 A100 GPUs with 320GB GPU memory. The establishment of research centre has led researchers to pursue AI and Machine Learning based Research work and projects, important for upcoming society needs.

The Degree program is spread over four years with two semesters in each year. Students study five theory courses and work on assignments in two or three laboratory courses in each semester. The first year of engineering is common to all disciplines. The students learn basic courses in Computer Science and Engineering, such as Discrete Structures, Data Structures, Operating Systems, Digital Electronics, Theory of Computation and Microprocessors in second year of engineering. The courses such as Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning Techniques, Analysis of Algorithms, Databases, Software Engineering, Computer Networks etc. are offered in third year engineering. Students present seminar on topic as per their interest and also carry out a mini project in a group of three/four students during their second and third year of engineering. In the final year engineering students not only study core courses such as Distributed systems, Object Oriented Modelling, Advanced Computer Architecture but also choose elective courses as per their interest. Students’ also carryout project work geared to the needs of the industry.
