Career Prospects:
Computer Science is one of the most sought after degrees in the world. Graduates of this program are offered lucrative career prospects in diverse professional fields including the local and global software industry. A large number of students end up setting up their own software houses or are self-employed and are developing software and providing services to global clients as free lancers. This degree is extremely suitable for females in our socio-economical structure where a female can very easily work from home as a freelancer for international projects and at the same time fulfil her domestic responsibilities.
Program Objectives
The primary goal of Bachelor of Science in Computer Science degree program is to prepare students in the theoretical as well as the practical aspects of software development and related activities. Our degree emphasizes on the development of analytical skills, acquisition of knowledge and understanding of systems, languages and tools required for effective computation-based problem solving with a major focus on hands-on practical knowledge of cutting edge technologies. The program thus prepares them for a successful career in computing as well as for advanced degrees. These students are also groomed to understand their social obligations and behave as responsible citizens of the society.
Program Description:
The main focus of a bachelor’s degree in computer science is to prepare students in the theoretical as well as the practical aspects of software development and related activities and prepares the students to meet current and future challenges in computer science. The program provides a unique hands-on practical exposure to our students by involving them in real software projects being developed by a specially designed "Teaching Software House" engaged in the development of real projects for real clients. The program is slightly different from the software engineering program as it is tilted slightly towards the theoretical side which gives them an in depth understanding of computer systems whereas the software engineering program is more focused towards the industrial requirements.
