Sri Venkateswara College of Engineering and Technology, is a leading technical Institution in India located at Chittoor, Andhra Pradesh. Department of Computer Science and Engineering (Data Science) having academic autonomy of having its own syllabus and curriculum. It offers undergraduate in the department of CSE(DS). The Department of CSE(DS) started with an initial intake of 60 students in UG Program in CSE in the year 2020 and the intake is enhanced to 180 in the year 2021.

Data science is one of the most cutting-edge and sought-after career options available today. This multidisciplinary field combines the use of scientific methodologies to transform data-driven knowledge into useful commercial insights. The field of data science includes a wide range of technologies with the goal of simplifying the process of understanding the technical outputs from massive amounts of data. With a focus on data science, the department provides a B.Tech CSE program to assist students in becoming skilled professionals who can use statistical and analytical methods to extract business values from data.

The B.Tech in Computer Science & Engineering (Data Science) is to employ machine learning techniques to master CSE in the field of data science. In addition to helping students understand and grasp CSE, this program will prepare them for a specialization in data science, which is one of the fastest-growing and highest-paying disciplines in computer science. Enterprises such as Google, Microsoft, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Cisco, Amazon, and Oracle are among the leading users of data-driven data science.

To put it another way, data science is an umbrella term that encompasses several parts of machine learning for practical applications. Interestingly, machine learning is a component of data science as well, where a wide range of goals are accomplished at a completely new level. A fundamental component of data science are ML and DS.

Thus, a B.Tech in CSE and DS graduate will be using machine learning techniques and DS ideas to solve data-driven real-world challenges.

The Department is headed by Dr.M.Lavanya in CSE(AI&ML). She has more than eighteen years of teaching experience including research.  She has 25 research articles to her credit published in reputed National and International Journals and Conferences. Her area of expertise includes Data Mining, Web Mining, Machine Learning and Data Analytics. She has organized for technical events, Clubs and Hackathons. She has two patents published in the domain of Artificial Neural networks and published 4 patents.
