From the Desk of Vice Chancellor

In an attempt to serve the society in a better way the University has introduced a number of new

courses in different areas. A few of them are in the areas of Forensic Science, Tissue Culture,

VAT, Port Management, Climate Change, Bioinformatics, Clinical Research, etc. The objective of

these courses is to meet the market requirements and also to help the professionals in specific

areas. In its move to go global, the University has initiated collaboration and networking with

Universities outside India. The University is working on creation of new infrastructural facilities to

keep pace with the expansion in various academic activities of the University. On the

technological front, efforts are made to integrate technology in the various functions and

pedagogy.

In the current era of globalization, India is looked upon as a country with a great potential for

cutting edge developments in the field of Information Technology. A great scope for development

and deployment of computerized systems exists within our country for carrying public services to

the billion plus population in order to improve the quality of governance and of civic services. IT

industry is one of the fastest growing segments of our economy and it promises to continue for

many more years to come. It is also one of the most dynamic industries with rapid changes. To

maintain a competitive edge, it must continue to make creative scientific and technological

advances. There is a growing demand for intelligent and dynamic work force with professional

training.

In order to cater to the need of industry and research & development in the field of computer

science and technology, Gujarat University initiated new programs M. Tech. (Networking and

Communication) and M.Tech. (Web Technology) in the year 2010. Also to create more

employment opportunities, one year Post Graduate Diploma in Network Administration in the

same year was started.

The M.Tech. Programme in Networking and Communication and Web Technologies is aimed at

preparing Computer professionals who can make significant contribution in research, academics

and industry.

I am sure that these programs will go a long way in producing highly skilled professionals who

will be able to make more significant contributions in the field of Computer Science and

Technology.

(RCC) has moved into 35th

year of its inception and I am glad to say that in all these years the Department

has always enjoyed the reputation for being the most preferred institute in the state for IT education.

Within a span of thirty four years, the Department has built a versatile system to train IT professionals and

entrepreneurs who have succeeded in today's exceedingly competitive and rapidly changing environment.

In our mission is to make available the best post graduate courses, hitherto unavailable, to the Gujarat

State students, right at their door-steps, the Department has started three new courses: M.Tech.

(Networking and Communications), M.Tech. (Web Technologies) and one year Post Graduate Diploma

in Network Administration in the year 2010.

The course curriculum has been carefully designed to impart rigorous training to enable students to meet

real world challenges, make significant contribution in the research and technology advancement in key

areas of Networking, Communication and Web Technology.

I, as the Head of the Department, take pride in offering these new courses to the graduate professionals to

stand with the industry and market demands.

Note: This is a common prospectus for M. Tech (Networking & Communications) and M. Tech

(Web Technologies) programmes conducted at the Department of Computer Science. Wherever

the rules and regulations are common, the same are given only once and are applicable to both the

programmes. Otherwise rules and regulations and other relevant information are provided

separately.

Gujarat State is well known for the entrepreneurial skills and business acumen of its people all

over the world. Ahmedabad, the biggest city of Gujarat, is a vibrant and prosperous city which

excels in every sphere of creative and economic activity, besides being a historical city. This

historical city of Ahmedabad was founded on the banks of Sabarmati in the year 1411 A.D. by

King Ahmed Shah, after whom the city has been named. The city has a rich and flourishing

heritage, cultural vibrancy and modern industries. Ahmedabad is also known for the freedom

movement and inspiring leaders such as Mahatma Gandhi and Sardar Patel. It was from the

Sabarmati Ashram located here that Mahatma Gandhi launched his famous Dandi March.

The city of Ahmedabad, which was known as the Manchester of East due to its innumerable textile

mills, has since diversified into various other sectors such as Information Technology, Pharma

sector, etc. The city is fortunate to have a very inspiring intellectual environment through well-

known institutions such as the Indian Institute of Management, Information and Library Network

(INFLIBNET), National Institute of Design, National Institute of Fashion Technology, Physical

Research Laboratory, Ahmedabad Textile Industries Research Association, Institute of Plasma

Research, Space Applications Centre etc. These institutions have given an international colour and

culture to the city. Among these institutions, Gujarat University also finds a place of pride catering

to the higher education needs of the students of Gujarat.

THE GUJARAT UNIVERSITY

The Gujarat University was conceived in the nineteen twenties in the minds of public-spirited and

learned men like Gandhiji, Sardar Patel, Acharya Anandshankar B. Dhruva, Dada Saheb

Mavlankar, Kasturbhai Lalbhai and many others. However, the University could come into

existence only after the achievement of independence in 1949. The University was incorporated

under the Gujarat University Act of the State Government as a teaching and affiliating University.

This was done as a measure of decentralization and reorganization of University education in the

then Province of Mumbai.

During the courses of its life of more than five decades, the University has been the establishment

of seven more Universities which were carved out of the jurisdiction of the Gujarat University,

viz., Sardar Patel University, Saurashtra University, Bhavnagar University, South Gujarat

University, Gujarat Ayurveda University, Gujarat Agricultural University and North Gujarat

University. Gujarat University is the largest university in the state catering to the needs of the

higher education which is evident from successfully running 350 colleges. In addition to this, the

university has to its credit 34 post graduate departments offering more than 50 different Post

graduate, diploma and certificate courses.

The National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NAAC) established by the University Grants

Commission (UGC) accredited the University with the grade B++. The motto of University is a

Sanskrit subhashita from Bhagvad Gita “Yoga Karmsu Kaushalam “, which means “Balance in

life is accomplished through proficiency & mastery in work.” It is the largest and biggest

University in state comprising of 19 districts and has a radius of 1000 kms.

Gujarat University is an affiliating at Undergraduate level, while it is teaching one at Postgraduate

level. Indeed, the responsibility for postgraduate instruction has been statutorily given to the

University and accordingly it has evolved a plan of coordinated instruction under the direct control

and supervision of the University so as to ensure efficient and diversified instructions.

The University has pioneered in developing curriculum and courses in emerging areas since its

inception. Realizing the need of qualified computer professionals, the Gujarat University had

initiated Post-Graduate Certificate and Post-Graduate Diploma course in Computer Science and

Applications way back in early 70’s and Master of Computer Application in 80’s at Rollwala

Computer Centre.
