The new group of Computer Science department called as TECSA holds two main events every year, one is Synapse and the other is Fragg Zone. Synapse includes various technical events which is focused mainly on Computer Science and Fragg Zone is a gaming event. Synapse and Fragg Zone have seen good success in the past two years, that is from the time of formation of Tecsa and both of the events are run by students only, taking minimum monetary aid from the department. Future plans of Synapse includes, but not limited to getting various public figures to speak for the students of CS Department, to guide them into an excellent future.

Campus
The campus is designed with main preference to the Computer Science and Electrical Engineering departments, both of which are close to the main gate of the building. The mechanical department is offset for some distance from the main building. Highest privilege of providing benefits for the computer science and information science is evident as both the departments have more than five computer labs, all well equipped with the latest systems.It has a medium sized ground which acts as a stadium for cricket, football and concerts. Concerts for various college festivals are held in the same ground.And it has a good canteen for the students.
