Computer Network and Network Design is a course which offers a detailed understanding of the principles and technologies core computer networks. Course begins by studying the functionalities of each layer in networking models like OSI and TCP/IP, enabling students to compare and understand their roles in ensuring reliable communication. Along with it you will get knowledge of various types of transmission media, examining their characteristics and design considerations, essential data link layer protocols and concepts. The course also focuses on analyzing routing protocols, enabling students to configure IP addresses and develop efficient network designs for different scenarios.

Further, the course addresses data transportation and session management challenges, emphasizing protocols that facilitate end-to-end data delivery. Students will study techniques for data presentation and understand the implementation of the client-server model in application layer protocols like HTTP and FTP. By integrating these concepts, students will gain practical skills to design and implement networks personalised to organizational needs, leveraging IP addressing, routing strategies, and application services effectively. This course equips students with the technical expertise how to build and manage robust and scalable network solutions. This course provides a strong theoretical foundation for exploring advanced and future-oriented networking solutions in the industry.

At the base of all logics being performed by computing devices, the data is being handled. All these data are actually sets of 1s and 0s. These data processing, manipulation, computation is being done by electronic
circuits like processors. Other electronic processes are also being done with the hardware like Processors, Controllers, Integrated Circuits (ICs), Application Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs), Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) etc. All these mentioned hardware are called examples of Digital Circuits. Thus, to understand the processes in a better way and to get optimized output from the hardware with which your software is dealing, the knowledge of Digital Logic Design is much necessary.
Computer architecture and Organization focuses on the function and design of various components necessary to process information digitally. The study of computer architecture and organization focuses on the interface between hardware and software, and emphasizes the structure and behavior of the system. Computer Organization is the study of internal working, structuring and implementation of a computer system. Architecture in computer system, same as anywhere else, refers to the externally visual attributes of the system.
