CSE Dept organises 6-day STTP on Discrete Computational Structures

The CSE Dept of the College organised a six-day Short Term Training Program (STTP) on “Discrete Computational Structures” during 28 June – 4 July 2018. The STTP was aimed at providing a basic understanding of the discrete structures which are essential for studying and describing concepts in computer science such as automata theory, computer algorithms, programming languages, cryptography and software development. The syllabus for the program was based on the syllabus for a course with the same title offered in the Third Semester of B Tech (CSE) curriculum of APJAKTU. The programme was targeted at faculty members from AICTE approved engineering colleges across Kerala.

The inaugural ceremony of the Programme was held on 28 June 2018 at 9.30 am at Advanced Computer Lab. Dr Ramani Bai V (HoD, CSE Dept) gave the welcome address. Dr V N Krishnachandran, Vice-Principal, presided over the function. Mr. Anilkumar S, Chief guest and the resource person for the STTP, officially inaugurated the function by lighting the traditional lamp. Dr Satheesh S (HoD, AS Dept) felicitated the occasion. Ms Divya K V (AP, CSE Dept and Coordinator of STTP) delivered vote of thanks.

Mr. Anilkumar S is a passionate teacher currently working as Asst Professor, Govt Engineering College, Idukki. He had received the Best Teacher award in the year 2007 at Rajiv Gandhi Institute of Technology, Kottayam, and also had won the gold medal for post graduation at NIT Calicut in the year 2015. His areas of interest include theoretical computer science, real and complex analysis and digital image processing. He had conducted numerous FDPs in areas like Theory of Computation and Introduction to Algorithms in various colleges. This is the second time Vidya is conducting a STTP under his expertise.

The STTP was concluded with a valedictory function in the presence of Dr Ramani Bai V, Mr Anilkumar S, Dr Saji C B, the new Principal, Dr. Sudha Balagopalan and Sri Suresh Lal, Finance Director.
