Mission

The Aim of our Program

aim The Computer Science Department offers a Bachelor of Science degree in Computer Science. The CS program provides CS majors with a broad based knowledge in various contemporary computer science fields such as computer architecture and organization, algorithm design and analysis, computer programming, database management systems, and computer networks and data communication. The CS program includes courses from mathematics, natural sciences, ethics, communications, and other general educations to provide the base knowledge required for understanding computer science topics, for gaining the skills required for entering in diverse careers in private and public sectors and pursue graduate studies.

EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVES

The educational objectives of the Department of Computer Science are consistent with the objectives and outcomes of the College of Engineering and TSU and are as follows:

To provide students with the basic knowledge in mathematical and natural science topics that are required for problem solving and understanding of the computer science studies.
To provide CS students with fundamentals of computer science so that, they can solve complex problems and develop algorithms using top-down structured design and object oriented design.
To provide students with hands-on computer science experiences so that they can implement algorithms and produce application software.
To provide students with oral and writing skills required for effective communication and productive functioning in teams and complex working environments.
To make students be aware of the social issues, ethical conducts, and their professional responsibilities to the society and the international community.
To prepare students so that they can pursue graduate studies and understand and appreciate benefits of life-long learning.
