The department of Information Science & Technology was established in the year 2002-03, with an intake of 60 students. Information Science and Technology is a young discipline that is evolving rapidly. The discipline ranges from theoretical studies of algorithms to practical problems of implementation in terms of computational hardware and software. Particular interest is placed on making process efficient and endowing them with some form of intelligence. Information science and technology is an interdisciplinary field primarily concerned with the analysis, collection, classification, manipulation, storage, retrieval, movement, dissemination, and protection of information. Practitioners within the field study the application and usage of knowledge in organizations, along with the interaction between people, organizations and any existing information systems, with the aim of creating, replacing, improving, or understanding information systems. 

Vision

Empower every student to be creative and productive in the field of Information Science and Technology by imparting quality technical education, technical skills and inculcating human values.

Mission
