HOD (CSE)

As knowledge shared today becomes leadership and innovation tomorrow, in Computer Science and Engineering education we as a team focus on enhancing learning capacity and mastery in engineering. In an era of rapid technological growth and constantly evolving technologies, driven by computer-based artificial intelligence, the importance of holistic education has increased significantly, expanding its potential in profound and far-reaching ways.

To our young minds and future leaders, remember that education does not end in the classroom, it is intrinsically woven into our lives through design, experimentation, and perseverance. At CITNC, we embrace challenges and nurture autonomous learners who are self-directed, inquisitive, and confident in facing the future. As a Professor of Computer Science engineering, I often find clarity in debugging , it teaches patience, precision, and resilience. In much the same way, each setback in learning quietly guides us closer to insight, innovation, and discovery.

As Dr. A. P. J. Abdul Kalam emphasized, we must instil honesty, integrity, self-respect, and a sense of universal brotherhood, shifting our focus from “what I get” to “what I can give.” This is the true motive of education. Let us all shoulder our responsibilities in building our nation through education and by nurturing young minds.
