About the Department

The Department of Computer Science & Information Technology (CSIT) is located beside the newly constructed administrative building of Cotton University. It started as a computer center under the erstwhile Cotton College on the 30th of July 2003, with funding from The North Eastern Council, Shillong. In 2004, this Centre was upgraded to a full-fledged department. In 2006, B.Sc. (Major) course in Computer Science were introduced. In the year 2007, the department also introduced the BCA course. Currently, the department offers B.Sc. and BCA at the...
