Welcome to Our Department
Message
I am delighted to welcome you to the Department of Computer Science & Engineering (Cyber Security),a department dedicated to shaping skilled professionals who can address the security challenges of today’s digital era. I hold a Ph.D. in Computer Science & Engineering from JNTU Anantapur and have over two decades of experience in teaching, research, and academic administration. My areas of expertise include machine learning, data science, big data analytics, and cyber-enabled intelligent systems, with several research publications in reputed SCI and Scopus-indexed journals. As an academician and researcher, I strongly believe in outcome-based education, continuous learning, and research-driven teaching.
With the rapid growth of connected systems and data-driven technologies, cyber security has emerged as a vital pillar of modern computing. Our department is dedicated to building a strong foundation in core computing concepts while imparting specialized knowledge in cyber security through a balanced combination of theoretical learning, hands-on practical exposure, research activities, industry interaction, and ethical practices. Supported by experienced and committed faculty members, the department fosters a dynamic academic environment through well-equipped laboratories, research-oriented projects, and continuous assessment aligned with Outcome-Based Education (OBE) principles.
We strongly encourage students to participate in research activities, internships, certifications, and co-curricular initiatives that enhance technical competence and professional confidence. Beyond technical skills, the department emphasizes values such as integrity, teamwork, adaptability, and lifelong learning to prepare graduates for leadership roles in the cyber security domain.
A secure digital future begins with knowledge, responsibility, and innovation.
