Frequently Asked Questions
What subjects are in KTU CSE Semester 1 (2024 Scheme)?
KTU CSE Semester 1 under the 2024 scheme has 8 subjects: Mathematics for Information Science I (GAMAT101, 3 credits), Engineering Graphics and Computer Aided Drawing (GMEST103, 3 credits), Algorithmic Thinking with Python (UCEST105, 4 credits), Introduction to Electrical and Electronics Engineering (GXEST104, 4 credits), Basic EEE Workshop (GXESL106, 1 credit), Physics for Information Science (GAPHT121), Chemistry for Information Science and Electrical Science (GXCYT122), and Health and Wellness (UCHWT127).
Is Semester 1 the same for all KTU Group A branches?
Yes. All Group A branches (CSE, IT, AI, AI&DS, AI&ML, CS&BS, CS&DE, CS Cyber Security, CS Data Science) have identical Semester 1 — all 8 subjects are common courses. The branch-specific curriculum begins from Semester 2 (one programme-core subject) and diverges fully from Semester 3.
What is Algorithmic Thinking with Python in KTU S1?
Algorithmic Thinking with Python (UCEST105) is a 4-credit compulsory subject in KTU Semester 1 for all branches. It introduces problem-solving using algorithms, flowcharts, pseudocode and Python programming — covering data types, control structures, functions, and basic data structures.
How many total credits are in KTU CSE Semester 1?
KTU CSE Semester 1 (2024 Scheme) carries approximately 22 credits across 8 subjects. The Physics and Chemistry subjects span both S1 and S2, so credit allocation is spread across both semesters.
