BS in Computer Science
Computer Sciences include the study, analyses, designing, implementation and application of what can be automated. It evolved as a result of the vast information revolution, which made it hard to escape computing and computers. Our BS program in Computer Sciences concentrates on programming skills in a variety of paradigms, operating systems, networking and databases. Hands on experience with various software systems, C, C++, JAVA, Visual Programming languages, Unix, Windows and Network tools are an integral part of the program. In addition, the present curriculum covers Mathematics, Basic Sciences, Humanities, Social Sciences, and English language skills. The Computer Science program offers an opportunity for fieldwork outside the university.
