The department of Computer Science and Engineering at IITGN was started in 2011 with a Ph.D. program. The discipline currently hosts research activities in:
o Algorithms
o Computational complexity
o Cryptography
o Data mining
o Machine learning
It is in the process of building the research network and recently developed a high performance computing facility based on GPU cluster.
