📡 About IEEE ITSoC NHCE Student Branch Chapter
The Department of Information Science and Engineering is proud to host the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) – Information Theory Society (ITSoC). As the pre-eminent community developing the mathematical underpinnings of information technology, the ITSoC chapter at New Horizon College of Engineering (NHCE), Bengaluru, serves as a foundational hub for students.

While Information Science manages the flow of data, Information Theory explores its limits—defining how we measure, compress, and secure the digital world. The IEEE-ITSoC NHCE Student Branch Chapter was initiated in 2026 to bridge the gap between classroom theory and cutting-edge industrial research, fostering a community of "Information Scientists" equipped to lead the next generation of digital innovation.
