Eligibility
Minimum 50% marks in Intermediate or Higher Secondary School Certificate (HSSC) examination with Mathematics or equivalent qualification
Objectives
The program's goal is to educate students for professional jobs in software engineering and doctoral study in the field. There is a balance between computer theory and practical application of software engineering principles such as software project management, methods, tools, and technologies in contemporary software development environments. Graduates of such a curriculum will be capable of working as competent software engineers and team players. In addition, they'll be well-versed in communication, mathematics, and physics, as well as the cultural, historical, and societal factors that impact and affect the creation of high-quality software systems.
They'll be familiar with and have expertise with software product engineering and engineering management, as well as a grasp of professional problems and procedures. In addition, graduates will be able to recognise and evaluate their skills and performance in software engineering.
Role and Scope
- The usefulness of a degree in terms of future employment possibilities and continuous development in the aforementioned is its scope.
- There is a need for curriculum frameworks capable of meeting the demands of a knowledge-driven, complex work environment in the twenty-first century.
- The main goal of the BS computer science programme is to provide a curriculum that integrates all of the components and establishes the foundations for accessing all new information and technology to realise the future vision.
