Program Overview
Program Overview
At the University of Chenab, we design an approach to the study of an Undergraduate degree program namely BS Computer Science (BS-CS). This course is exclusively available to provide stimulating, broad field knowledge. It gives knowledge about all the emerging computer technologies to create a mixture of everything. Hence, it counts the theory to application at the foundation and modern levels. This hence in turn, prepare students for higher learning and state-of-the-art training.
Duration of Program
Pursuing a full-time, four-year degree in Computer Science holds excellent job prospects across a number of demanding careers. Students can have employment as computer scientists, software developers, programmers, system analysts, web developers, as well as user experience designers. They can hence work in a variety of business, engineering, industrial, governmental, as well as scientific environments.
The systematic study of computer science aims to develop a practical knowledge of computing skills. This is an understanding which will give you the ability in the areas of system programming, artificial intelligence, algorithm analysis, as well as system design. This course will meanwhile enable you to acquire a cutting-edge experience of computer science at the research, development, as well as planning levels.
Main Goal Of Program
Our Computer Science (CS) degree will nurture generations of new talent with the most modern technical and scientific developments in computer science fields. You will also learn the mechanization of methodical procedures. This includes with acquisition, storage, processing, and access to information systems. As Computer Science is a field teeming with innovation, it aims to build a solid foundation in computational methods and computational problem solving. It also teaches about fundamental principles of system software and the limits of computing. course structure offers a flexible mixture of core/compulsory and optional modules. Through the optional module, you may choose to spend a year in a research exchange program, which will help you throughout your career.
