About the department

When you talk about Saurashtra you talk about versatility; it never stopped itself in discovering from time to time. One or the other way people of Saurashtra contributed in excelling and moving ahead of its time. It was the dawn of the year 1998 where Rajkot faced a new ever star in its galaxy. It was a new and the most awaited feather in the cap of Shri M&N Virani Science College. Bachelors of computer application took its place in this system as the pioneer institute serving the computer studies in the region and not just that, it did not stop its flight it added Bachelor’s of computer science in information and technology in 1999; again a pioneer institute dedicated for building the future of an I.T aspirant.

Just like a kid, when it takes birth, faces a lot of challenge and struggles to survive but, when one has the parental blessing of H.D.H Pragat Guru Hari Hariprasad Swamiji Maharaj kid like college was to excel, undoubtedly. When the college started the department, the region had no faculties. The demand of the students was so intense that resulted into a change of almost 7 faculties at a stretch but things turn the other way when Dr. Rajesh Partker, all the way from Mumbai, was appointed for a specific Subject, Programming in C to be precise. Still the department looked for someone to hold the reigns where number of leads served to the best of their knowledge and skill, to mention their name, in order, The first Lead was Sangeeta Madam, then the baton was handed over to Virag Shukla, Hasit Mehta, Chetan Bhojani, Vinay Dadhaniya, Devang tank, Paresh Patel, Dr. Nilesh Padariya (Dr. Pushpen), and now finally stable under the leadership of Dr. Stavan Patel and (Dr) Hitendra Donga.

The way it started and the miles we traveled

The only department which needed hardcore machines for the brain to be fed upon. In the year 1998, the department had best in its time computers. Firstly it had Pentium Celeron Machine, that was then upgraded to Pentium 3 processor, Dual core, Core 2 duo, I-3 Machines, and now it has the state of the art machines, that are almost rare to be seen in colleges these days; are iOS Machines.

One needs to work on the hardware part too and hence it was too updated wherein 2006 the department started up with the most updated hardware available. The department had IBM Network; certified by IBM itself; which no other institute had even thought of. We are the only department who had Sun Solaris network; Number 1 network in India at the UG level.

Department did not stop updating and upgrading itself. After all these gadgets it focused on the classroom where the class that started in 1998 is now turned into smart classrooms.
In the year 2001, to stay updated with knowledge for students and spreading it across the society the department had Microsoft certified Pro-Metric Center where under the guidance of expert teachers students were pumped up for the exams like MCSE – MCSE and MCP. Was this to show on paper only? Not really, it had a benchmark achievement where the department and teachers worked so hard to let the student achieve their goal. MAULIN RAVAL an 8 years old kid, son of Alpna and Yogesh Rawal; made a world record by cracking MCSE Exam.

The year 2006 was the year where the department rose from the U.G program to the P.G program.MSC.IT took place this year and with their projects; they not just only helped the corporate, individuals, and organizations but also contributed to the Municipal Corporation of Rajkot by offering solutions to varied problems.

The story has just begun, come and be a part of its journey…
