Welcome to Department of Computer Engineering at SFIT, Mumbai. With an objective of producing and nurturing the Computer Science professional’s, future technological entrepreneurs and early researchers, department started its journey with undergraduate course in Computer Engineering in year 1999 with an intake of 60 seats which now has been increased to 180.
We have also started two postgraduate courses- ME in year 2012 and Ph.D in year 2014 in Computer Engineering with the intake of 18 and 13 respectively. Every year about 25% of the final year students secure admission for higher studies at top and eminent Universities across the globe and reputed institutes in India. Total of 90% + of our eligible students are placed in reputed industries/organization every year. Many of our students are emerging as Entrepreneurs as well. The competent faculties, dynamic students and specialized laboratories are the strengths of our department. We have our own ‘CODEX’ Student association- a technical platform for motivating and supporting our students to upgrade them with the latest technologies and help them to acquire necessary skill sets as per their requirements and interests. Students at department are always encouraged and supported to participate in various technical and extra-curricular activities at regional, National and International level. We have an enthusiastic team of staff and students for co-ordination and execution of the activities throughout the year under Computer Society of India (professional Body). Every year team of young engineers from department exhibit their advanced and technical skills in ‘Robocon’, ‘e-yantra’ and Smart India hackathons and many such national or international technical competitions.
We have experienced and highly competent faculty members with excellent academic credentials and expertise in all core and emerging courses of computer engineering. Faculties are always motivated to upgrade their skills and knowledge through various training and certification programs under AICTE, IITs, NITs, IEEE, ISTE and Government organizations as well.
Being Heart of our Institute SFIT, we as department of computer Engineering are giving strength, motivation, ethical values to our young aspiring engineers besides technical and professional skill sets. We always encourage our students to be socially aware, responsible, committed and to become smart citizens of today’s era.
