Computer Science is a very exciting & dynamic field that has provided tremendous opportunities in the recent times & promises a future where technology expands through all areas of our lives, both at home and at work. Our program is fairly conventional, offering a solid foundation in both theoretical and practical fields which leads the students to become familiar with the state of the arts technologies and paves the way to go for either higher education or to build career in software and IT enabled firms. Additionally, our faculty has a variety of research interests and offer classes related to their research as well as motivate undergraduate students to become excel in the field of research of their own interests.
The Department of Computer Science & Engineering offers a 4-year bachelor degree on 'Bachelor of Science in Computer Science & Engineering'. To become a graduate in this field, one has to complete 152 credit hours of courses.
The program is designed to satisfy the growing demand for computer professionals throughout the country. It gives students the opportunity to obtain broad-based knowledge and expertise of Computer Science, Computer Engineering, and Information Technology and also a freedom to tailor the program according to the student's individual needs. Moreover, there are sufficient number of Physics, Mathematics, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering and other basic Science, Commerce and Arts courses in this course curriculum which enables a CSE graduate of this department to revolve around different branches of knowledge.
Entry Requirements
Minimum 2nd division or GPA 2.5 in both SSC and HSC or equivalent examination (Science background with Physics and Mathematics) or 'O' Level in five subjects and 'A' Level in two subjects with minimum 'C' grade in each or US high school diploma.
Diploma engineering certificate (4 years duration) under Technical Education Board in the relevant field for evening program.
Vision
The objectives of the Computer Science & Engineering program are to produce graduates who are able to design, implement and test a hardware and/or software system or component, can adapt and contribute to new technologies and methods and to use these in engineering design, can serve in a variety of roles such as solving problems with technical elements, serving as team members, and leading others, and have high standards of professional and ethical responsibilities.
