Message From HoD

Dr. Geethu Mary George

Welcome to the department of Computer Science and Engineering (Cybersecurity) at Jyothi Engineering College, Thrissur! As you glance through the faculty profile, I am sure that you will appreciate that we are fortunate to have an experienced and well qualified team. They are a vibrant group, who understand the importance of knowledge, skill and attitude in an outcome-based education system. Through innovative teaching methodology, we strive to bring out the best in every student. The B.Tech. Computer Science and Engineering with Specialization in Cyber Security programme aims to offer the students an opportunity to expand their skills in computer science and Cyber Security by offering various programming courses based on industry requirements, and core courses like data structures, database systems, operating systems, computer networks, programming in cybersecurity, cryptography and network security.

This programme will ensure in bringing radical changes in the field of Digital Forensics, Cyber Intelligence and Malware Forensics with a vision to inspire today’s brightest researchers to make a major impact in cyber world by generating innovative ideas and pursuing their research to become pioneers in the field of cyber security and also take initiative to build knowledge capacity & skill development for the community of academic, government and law enforcement. In addition, specializations courses in Cyber Security such as malware analysis, digital forensics, AI in cyber security, cybercrime and incident response, system security, blockchain, cyber threat intelligence are also offered to meet the market demands.The competency gap together with a strong need to build skill sets to meet the growing demand in various aspects of cybercrime management has been a primary trigger in starting the new course in Cyber Security.
