OBJECT COMPUTING LAB
Object Computing Lab provides an environment for the students to gain
an
understanding of the principles of Object Oriented Programming (OOP), and implementing them in languages
such as C++, JAVA. It is also intended for learning and applying required design patterns that will
enable
the students to design and develop real-time object oriented systems.
Location: E block, third floor.
COMPUTATIONAL SCIENCES LAB
Computational Sciences Lab is a fundamentals lab especially for
beginners in programming to learn basic programming languages through problem solving. The students are
encouraged to learn and implement data structures and algorithms, building a strong foundation in
programming. Students are expected to develop projects that would help them understand the role of the
concepts learnt. The lab also introduces git as a model and tool for distributed version control.
Location: M-Block Ground Floor.
CYBER SECURITY RESEARCH LAB
Cyber Security Lab focuses on providing the fundamental concepts
underlying the construction of a secure system. Students will be introduced to key security tools
including firewalls, anti-virus and cryptography. The main aim of the lab is to provide students with
tools and techniques that would help them build secure products by thinking about adversaries and
developing novel ways to defend them.
Location: M-Block Ground Floor.
