CSE (IoT & Cyber Security including Block Chain)
The Cambridge Institute of Technology has introduced a new undergraduate engineering programme, B.E. in Computer Science & Engineering (Internet of Things and Cyber Security including Blockchain Technology), from the academic year 2023–24 with an intake of 60 students. This programme is affiliated to Visvesvaraya Technological University (VTU), Belagavi and recognized by AICTE, New Delhi.
This course was initiated with the vision of empowering young engineers with emerging technologies to support the sustained growth of technology and the economy of the country.
Cyber Security
A worthwhile and rapidly growing field, Cyber Security focuses on protecting organizations and individuals from digital attacks, ensuring the safety of information and networks. Professionals in this field:
-
Detect vulnerabilities
-
Recommend secure software and hardware solutions
-
Develop policies and procedures for maintaining security
As businesses increasingly shift online and cyberattacks continue to rise, the demand for skilled cybersecurity professionals—especially in healthcare and financial sectors—is projected to grow significantly.
Internet of Things (IoT)
IoT applications are enhancing comfort, efficiency, and automation for users. However, the implementation of such technologies must be backed by:
-
High security
-
Privacy
-
Authentication
-
Recovery from attacks
The future of IoT is limitless, with industrial growth driven by network agility, integrated AI, and the ability to deploy, automate, orchestrate, and secure diverse use cases at hyperscale.
Blockchain Technology
Blockchain is a decentralized, distributed, and public digital ledger used to record transactions securely across multiple systems. Its structure ensures:
-
Records cannot be altered retroactively
-
All changes require consensus of the network
Programme Focus
The curriculum emphasizes both foundational and advanced concepts, including:
-
Cyber Crime
-
Network Security
-
Data Structures
-
Design and Analysis of Algorithms
-
Cryptography
-
Intrusion Detection and Prevention Systems
-
IoT Technologies
-
Blockchain Technologies
This programme addresses the growing demand for experienced professionals in Cyber Security and IoT, preparing students for a dynamic and secure digital future.
Vision
