SSN Department of Computer Science and Engineering
The Department of Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) was established in the year 1996.
Besides fulfilling the requirements of the syllabus prescribed by the University, the program offers students the opportunity to work on diverse hardware and software platforms.
The Department, accredited by NBA (National Board of Accreditation) in the year 2003, has organized three AICTE-ISTE Short Term Training Programmes, funded by the AICTE and three Faculty Development Programmes sponsored by Anna University as well as one International Conference with all the departments of SSN College of Engineering. It has organized many symposia, guest lectures and CSI and ISTE student chapters. The department is also instrumental in developing and supplying open source software. Every year, many students from the Computer Science department join the joint Masters program offered by Carnegie Mellon University and SSN College of Engineering. This department is presently headed by Dr. Chitra Babu.

Famous quotes containing the words department, computer, science and/or engineering:
“While the focus in the landscape of Old World cities was commonly government structures, churches, or the residences of rulers, the landscape and the skyline of American cities have boasted their hotels, department stores, office buildings, apartments, and skyscrapers. In this grandeur, Americans have expressed their Booster Pride, their hopes for visitors and new settlers, and customers, for thriving commerce and industry.”
—Daniel J. Boorstin (b. 1914)
“The analogy between the mind and a computer fails for many reasons. The brain is constructed by principles that assure diversity and degeneracy. Unlike a computer, it has no replicative memory. It is historical and value driven. It forms categories by internal criteria and by constraints acting at many scales, not by means of a syntactically constructed program. The world with which the brain interacts is not unequivocally made up of classical categories.”
—Gerald M. Edelman (b. 1928)
“But don’t despise error. When touched by genius, when led by chance, the most superior truth can come into being from even the most foolish error. The important inventions which have been brought about in every realm of science from false hypotheses number in the hundreds, indeed in the thousands.”
—Stefan Zweig (18811942)
“Mining today is an affair of mathematics, of finance, of the latest in engineering skill. Cautious men behind polished desks in San Francisco figure out in advance the amount of metal to a cubic yard, the number of yards washed a day, the cost of each operation. They have no need of grubstakes.”
—Merle Colby, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
