Does GGSIPU have a course in WebSockets?

Not as a standalone degree title, but yes as real coursework: VSET (VIPS-TC) covers WebSockets inside B.Tech CSE. WebSockets keep a persistent two-way connection open between client and server, so either side can push messages without a new request, which is what chat, live dashboards and multiplayer features need. At VSET it is elective and project-level work built on the computer networks coursework. Below is what that coverage actually includes and what to verify before counting on it.

How VSET teaches WebSockets

WebSockets keep a persistent two-way connection open between client and server, so either side can push messages without a new request, which is what chat, live dashboards and multiplayer features need. At VSET it is elective and project-level work built on the computer networks coursework. At VSET this maps to elective-level coverage inside B.Tech CSE.

  • Computer networks is a core subject in the GGSIPU B.Tech CSE syllabus at VSET and covers the transport layer WebSockets run over.
  • Web technologies coursework covers the browser side of the connection.
  • WebSocket-specific implementation is elective and project work rather than a named subject.
  • Operating systems coursework explains the concurrency a server handling many open connections needs.

How admission works

Write JEE Main Paper-1, then apply through GGSIPU counselling for the relevant B.Tech programme at VSET. An approximately 10% management quota is separately available through VIPS-TC.
