Software engineering aims to use the latest technologies to develop easy software solutions to the complex problem. DSE provides familiarity with the basic needs & processes in the various software application domains, with the principles of good Software Engineering practice with the underline concepts and principles of computer sciences.
It is my pleasure to welcome you to the Department of Software Engineering (DSE). We at DSE offer degree program in Software Engineering. Since its inception, the Department is playing vital role in developing skilled software professionals. Our mission is to discover new ideas based on ICT, and apply them for the welfare of the nation. Our every effort is dedicated to establish knowledge oriented learning environment where our competent faculty members offer their best output and students are encouraged to show their best.
Our courses are unique blend of the core principles of the discipline and new advances in the fast-moving world of software and information technology. We are rightly proud of our academic performance, but at DSE learning means much more than the quest for excellent grades. Extracurricular activities are evenly important here, and we are really aware of our responsibility to prepare young people who can enter the professional life as confident, helpful and responsible citizens. There are efforts of good people behind every successful institution, and I believe that our teacher and students are the best to achieve any height of excellence.
