Ph.D
Computer Applications
Overview

The programme on Ph.D in Computer Application is an advanced degree program that focuses on developing research skills in the scholars. It is a research-oriented program that requires students to develop and execute original research projects in a specialized area of computer application. In this programme, the scholars are expected to identify the research gaps, formulate objectives, and develop methodologies for finding solutions to real life problems.

The various potential areas of research are : Artificial Intelligence (AI),AI Ethics and Responsible AI, Explainable AI (XAI),AI for Healthcare, Federated Learning and Privacy-Preserving AI, Explainable and Interpretable Machine Learning (XIML) and Machine Learning (ML),Natural Language Processing (NLP),Computer Vision, Cybersecurity and Privacy, Internet of Things (IoT),Data Science and Big Data Analytics, Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) and User Experience (UX),Cloud Computing and Distributed Systems, Software Engineering and Development, Quantum Computing, Quantum Machine Learning (QML),Robotic Process Automation (RPA),Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS),Explainable Recommendation Systems.

Our department is proud to host 20 PhD scholars pursuing research in cutting-edge areas of computer science and its applications. Their diverse topics reflect our commitment to advancing knowledge, innovation, and real-world impact.
