The School of CSIT offers a four-year B.Tech degree in CSIT(Cyber Security) with an aim to equip students with working knowledge of tools, techniques, and procedures to operate as a cyber-Security specialist/analyst.
As per the latest analysis by the Data Security Council of India (DSCI), the Indian cyber security industry would grow at a CAGR of 21.6% to touch an annual revenue of Rs. 1 Lakh Crores by 2024, the year our first batch of CSIT(Cyber Security) students would enter the market. The School of CSIT will ensure that these students are “Industry Ready” in the true sense of the term before they appear for campus interviews.
The syllabus has been designed in consultation with the cyber security experts from the Industry and is aligned to the latest trends, tools, and techniques being used in the cyber security domain.
Our students will gain comprehensive knowledge of Cyber Crime, Network Security, Data structures, Design and Analysis of Algorithms, Cryptography, Intrusion Detection, and Prevention Systems, Blockchain, Digital Forensics, Governance Risk and Compliance (GRC), Security, Engineering, Security Operation, Cyber Threat Intelligence and so on. This makes our program absolutely unique. Moreover, the course is designed in such a way that maximum focus is on skills development and practical assignments.
Another key differentiator of this course is that we offer multiple internship Opportunities (three Internships) to every student. He is exposed to the current trends in the cyber world through guest lectures by Industry experts and we provide training for Industry recognized cybersecurity certifications like CISSP, CISM, CISA, OSCP, etc. So, a student who passes out with BTech CSIT (Cyber Security) also has a recognized industry certification with him. We promise you a unique and memorable learning experience here at the marvellous campus of Symbiosis Skills and Professional University, Kiwale (Pune).

Testimonials
As the college offers a B.TECH degree along with the specialization course which is rare among Indian colleges. To continue with, I just had an idea about cybersecurity but when I entered the course my interest towards derived. As we are from skill university, the college offers 70% practical and 30% theory which is more beneficial for all the students in our corporate life. Internships are a part of the curriculum for students every year which is an additional point and gives an opportunity to an individual to emanate
I wanted to pursue Cyber Security as my career because it is interesting field. Here, the syllabus is well designed, and it captures all the important topics of the domain. Apart from that the faculties constantly keep on encouraging students to participate in hackathons which gives us opportunity to undertake interesting projects and gain experience. After joining the university my interest has boosted and I also got opportunity to explore more areas under this domain.
After joining this course my interest toward cyber security has increased more. Internship opportunity every year was the point which impressed me the most about this course. Apart from that syllabus is really domain focused so that we get hands on knowledge about the topic before we pass out from the college. Not only academic but this university promotes over all development of the individual, which is quite rare among the colleges.
