About the Institute
The University of Hyderabad, a premier institution of postgraduate teaching and research in the country, was established by an Act of Parliament (Act No. 39 of 1974) on 2nd October, 1974 as a Central University, wholly funded by the University Grants Commission.
The “objects of the University” as envisaged in the Act are: “to disseminate and advance knowledge by providing instructional and research facilities in such branches of learning as it may deem fit and by the example of its corporate life, and, in particular, to make special provisions for integrated courses in humanities and science in the educational programmes of the University and to take appropriate measures for promoting inter-disciplinary studies and research in the University.”
The University of Hyderabad (UoH), one of the major institutions of higher education in India is largely devoted to postgraduate studies and is widely known for its excellence in research and for its distinguished faculty. The large campus located near Gachibowli, which is the IT hub of Hyderabad, has immense bio-diversity and is home to over 75 varieties of bird, not to speak of the lakes and rock formations which give the campus a natural beauty.

Faculty
The School of Computer and Information Sciences (SCIS) sets an example of excellence in all the major aspects of higher learning such as teaching, research, student development and curriculum planning. The strengths of the School are its quality faculty, innovative and flexible curricula with their unique focus on postgraduate education, state-of-the-art research with a large number of PhD scholars – both ongoing and recently graduated. The practices in the school are very open and with transparent policies that foster a healthy student-faculty interaction.
SCIS, created in 2012, is the only school in the university focused on Computer Science, AI and Applications. It runs 6 different programs – 5-yr Integrated M. Tech (CSE) (After +2 level of School Education), M. Tech in AI, CS and IT (with specialisation in Banking Technology and Information Security) (admission is through GATE), MCA (admission through NIMCET common Test) and PhD (CS). The School has more than 500 students on its rolls. SCIS is also well known throughout India and abroad for the quality of its research with four faculty figuring in the Stanford list of top-2% researchers world-wide. All the faculty have PhDs with five having degrees from abroad and eight with degrees from IITs/IISc/ISI, etc. At present the faculty strength is of 27 and they do quality research in cutting edge areas such as Deep Learning, AI, Internet of Things, Parallel and Cloud Computing,
Cryptography, etc. The curriculum is flexible, with a mix of core subjects and state-of-the-art electives preparing the student for both employment and research.
The history of SCIS can be traced back to running MCA, M. Tech and Ph. D programmes as a part of the School of Mathematics/Computer and Information Sciences from 1983. A separate Department of Computer and Information Sciences was created in 1993 which finally became a school in 2012. SCIS always
stood for innovation and leadership in curriculum planning. SCIS is unique in starting an M. Tech programme in AI back in 1987. It is the first and the oldest running AI programme in the country with more than 800 students graduated thus far.
M. Tech (IT) , started in 2001, is also a one-of-its-kind programme in collaboration with the Institute for Development and Research in Banking Technologies (IDRBT), an RBI institution. The objective has been to cater to the burgeoning digital banking technological requirements as India started moving
into the modern banking era. SCIS also started a highly successful 5-yr Integrated M. Tech (CSE) programme in 2014 and is recognized by AICTE making the students eligible for GATE Fellowships in the 5th year.
SCIS offers an excellent place for students to train in Computer Science education with its quality faculty, 24x7 research labs, advanced high performance computing facilities and attractive placements. The students regularly win awards at national hackathons, participate and win prizes in many inter-collegiate events and publish papers in reputed conferences and journals. Many of our alumni are in highly-ranked colleges and universities both in India and abroad, are in senior-level positions in extremely well-known companies and some are successful entrepreneurs.
