About CSE at DDUGU Gorakhpur
Established in 2021 with an initial intake of 60 students, the CSE department at DDUGU is still in its early development phase compared with older engineering departments. Students should expect a growing academic setup and should actively use coding practice, self-study, online resources and project work along with regular classes.
The department has been adding skill-focused exposure through external collaborations, including academic tie-ups with NIELIT Gorakhpur and the Samsung Innovation Campus (SIC) programme for training in areas such as AI and IoT. The relatively flexible academic environment can also help serious students prepare for coding, GATE and other technical goals with consistency.
Key Highlights
- CSE is less about coding dreams and more about consistent problem solving
- Every student secretly Googles the same errors at 2 AM
- PYQs are treated like sacred documents before exams
- Understanding matters more than memorization
- Consistency quietly beats talent in the long run

Samsung Innovation Campus (SIC) Initiative
The department successfully implemented the Samsung Innovation Campus (SIC) program in the 2024-25 academic session. Over 300 students enrolled in industry-relevant tracks like Artificial Intelligence, Big Data, Coding, and Internet of Things. A major highlight of this initiative was student Amit Maurya, who received a ₹1 Lakh cash prize and a laptop directly from Samsung India. The official certificate distribution ceremony took place on 26 July 2024, attended by Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath Ji and J.B. Park, President & CEO of Samsung Electronics Southwest Asia.
GATE Preparation and Success (2025)
The CSE department conducts dedicated academic sessions specifically aligned with the NEP 2020 to support students preparing for the Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering (GATE). In the 2025 examinations, 12 students from the department successfully qualified. The standout achievement from this batch was a student securing an impressive All India Rank (AIR) of 120, proving the academic rigor of the core subjects taught here.
NPTEL Courses and National Rankings
To encourage self-learning and exposure to specialized tech domains, the department offers 34 NPTEL elective courses. Students actively participate in these national-level certifications. During the 2023–24 academic year, two students achieved exceptional results: Ashawini Yadav secured a top 5% national ranking in 'Affective Computing', and Aakash Singh achieved a top 5% national rank in 'Introduction to IoT'.
Hackathons, Exhibitions & Leadership Workshops
Students are actively encouraged to step outside the classroom and participate in competitive tech events. They have earned accolades in national-level hackathons and model exhibitions, including prestigious events hosted by IIT Delhi. Alongside technical skills, the department focuses on holistic personal growth by organizing transformative leadership workshops, such as 'Principle-Centred Leadership' (26 February 2024) and 'Leadership Sutras from the Bhagavad Gita' (25 March 2025).
Placements, Training & Internships
The department maintains a strong focus on practical industry exposure through regular industrial training and annual industrial visits. To further support this, internships are actively promoted through unique collaborations, including organizations like ISKCON Gorakhpur. As a result of these combined efforts, the department has consistently delivered strong placement outcomes, with over 50% of its students securing technical positions in reputed multinational companies.
