About Us


Welcome to the Department of Computer Science & Information Technology, where innovation meets education. Department of Computer Science & IT was established in the year 1999. Ramnarain Ruia College was among the first 8 colleges to start B.Sc. in Computer Science Programme affiliated to University of Mumbai. Subsequently, we introduced M.Sc. Computer Science and M.Sc. Information Technology in the year 2002 and 2011 respectively.

Our vision is to foster a dynamic and inclusive learning environment for our students. We are dedicated to advancing the frontiers of technology through excellence in teaching, research, and community engagement. We focus on the holistic development of our students by providing them the environment that enhances innovations, problem-solving & research attitude in students. We train our students in a wide spectrum right from basics, core areas to emerging & trending technologies in the market. Our Post-graduate programmes emphasizes on Research and Specialization in current trends of Computing. We offer Internship to MSc Copmuter Science & IT both in the last semester (Sem IV). Many students get absorbed as full time employees after completing their Interships.

Our Department is proud to receive the grants under the Star College Scheme from DBT, Ministry of Science and Technology, Government of India in 2016. These grants assisted to promote Undergraduate Research and training in current Trends and Technologies.

Our students have excelled as entrepreneurs, innovators and researchers in various IT domains of global competence. Many of our students are placed in leading companies like Google, Apple, L & T InfoTech, TCS, Wipro, Capgemini, Infosys, MBT, ATOS, Deloitte.

Message from Head of Department

Department of HOD

I Megha Sawant, Head, Department of Computer Science & IT, Welcome you to the Department of Computer Science & IT. I am proud to be associated with Ruia college for over two decades as student, faculty and now head of the department.  I firmly believe in education that triggers not only the intellectual ability but also motivates mind and soul positively to create, share and apply knowledge. I am fortunate to implement my ideas with the support of institution, colleagues and students.

We are always in the process of tuning the young minds to make them globally competitive. We, educators, believe in the principle “Learn by doing” with more emphasis on the practical implementation of concepts and Project-based learning with applications to real-world problem-solving. We focus on catering to the needs of Millennial learners with enhanced ICT tools for collaborative learning,  blended learning and flipped classrooms. We strive to maximize the potential of each student by maintaining a positive and trusting relationship. We organize various activities like Intercollegiate IT Festival TechStorm, Seminars, Workshops/Training on recent Trends and Technologies, Alumni Talk. All these activities are managed by students that enhance their leadership qualities,  interpersonal and communication skills. We strive to inculcate ethics and morals in students through various social activities. Enthusiastic and passionate faculty team has impacted on an excellent performance of students in placements, academics and certifications. Our students are bringing glory to our department by performing well globally in their endeavours.
