The University of Hyderabad, a premier institution of post graduate teaching and research in the 

country, was established by an Act of Parliament on 2nd October, 1974 as a Central University, wholly 

financed by the University Grants Commission (UGC). UGC has identified a few Universities and 

granted them the status of Universities with Potential for Excellence. The objective of this initiative 

was to provide these select institutions with augmented inputs, including additional funds, to sustain 

and enhance quality of education and research. Based on the evaluation and recommendations of this 

committee, the UGC declared the University of Hyderabad a University with Potential for Excellence. 

Department of Computer and Information Sciences is amongst the leading academic departments

M.Tech Computer Science 

The M.Tech (Computer Science) programme is designed to provide a strong foundation in the basic 

concepts of computer science without sacrificing the flexibility needed to meet the rapidly changing 

needs of the current IT industry. The course structure reflects these two underlying themes - the core 

courses, mandatory to all the students provide a solid background in the field; the electives, reflecting 

the state-of-the-art, allow different students to pursue their own areas of interest. 

The vast choice of electives is carefully chosen to equip students with sufficient knowledge and prepare 

them to take on challenges of the IT field. Several of the electives are geared towards meeting the needs 

of the industry while others offer something to those students wishing to proceed for advanced studies. 

The subjects and the courses are constantly under review, and companies and institutions are encouraged 

to give feedback to make our programmes more compatible with the needs of the Indian society. 

The grooming of students starts from day one, through highly interactive treatment involving classroom 

discussions, seminars, lab assignments, mini projects. 

Admission to the M.Tech (CS) program will be purely on the basis of performance in the Graduate 

Aptitude Test in Engineering (GATE). Merit list will be prepared and candidates will be called for 

counselling.

M.Tech Artificial Intelligence 

The M.Tech course in Artificial Intelligence at University of Hyderabad is the only one of its kind in 

the country. This programme is to meant for students already well equipped in Computer Sciences 

discipline and Post Graduates in related sciences. This course equip students with the skills and 

knowledge to stay at the forefront of this rapidly developing area. It is designed to give students the 

latest knowledge and computational skills in the areas of machine learning and intelligent discovery 

methods. 

The programme also provides the opportunity to learn more about the application of AI techniques 

to commercial and industrial problems, especially in areas in which our Department have research 

expertise such as, Machine Learning, Pattern Recognition, and Knowledge Representation. This 

programme bridges the gap between core subjects and advanced topics, keeping on pace with the 

industrial requirements. This exposes the students to the ”happening fields” in the world of computer 

science. This course give them a strong understanding of Algorithms, Machine learning, Problem 

solving methodologies, Computational Intelligence, Data Mining, Expert Systems, Parallel computing, 

Optimization techniques etc. 

The assignments for every subject makes students more familiar with understanding, design, and 

programming skills. The course structure provides the wide spectrum of electives, reflecting the 

state-of-the-art, allow different students to pursue their own areas of interest. The vast choice of electives 

is carefully chosen to equip students with sufficient knowledge and prepare them to take on challenges 

of the IT field. Several of the electives are geared towards meeting the needs of the industry while others 

offer something to those students wishing to proceed for advanced studies. The subjects and the courses 

are constantly under review, and companies and institutions are encouraged to give feedback to make 

our programmes more compatible with the needs of the Indian society. 

Admission to the M.Tech (AI) program will be purely on the basis of performance in the Graduate 

Aptitude Test in Engineering GATE). Merit list will be prepared and candidates will be called for 

counselling.
