Army Public College of Management and Sciences
(APCOMS), Rawalpindi is center of excellence, which has in
short span of time established its niche in the community of
Engineering Sciences and Business Management institutions.
Founded in 1999 under the administrative control of the
Inspector General Training & Evaluation (IGT&E), Pakistan
Army, yet self governed. It has made Engineering Sciences and
Management Sciences education accessible for those brilliant
students who lack adequate resource base. APCOMS aims to
narrow the gulf between perception and reality by adopting
innovative, responsive, quality focused and open door policy. It
has made its core competence an environment, where
students are made to cross the traditional border of
professional disciplines. It is determined to act as a catalyst of
progress. The alumni of the APCOMS are independent, self
governing and serious minded professionals, who have
assumed the mantle of leadership by making significant and
invaluable contributions in their chosen discipline. APCOMS
aims at building the academic edifice around the core
competencies of its students, who are eager to serve in various
corporate, industrial, telecommunications and banking sector.
Vision
In today’s world, which has now become a global village, no nation can meet the
pace with the development, without paying special attention towards the
professional education. This can be achieved only by producing a competent pool
human resource which should be competent enough to accept the challenges and
provide practical solutions.
Mission
It is the endeavour of “Army Public College of Management & Sciences”, to play an
active role in the national development by producing highly skilled and competent
electrical engineers, IT specialists and business managers. In order to accomplish
this mission Army Public College of Management & Sciences is committed to
provide an educational environment which is conducive to foster creativity and
ingenuity.

ACADEMICS - ENGINEERING SCIENCES DEPARTMENT
B.Sc Civil Engineering
APCOMS was established in 1999 to provide professional
education in the field of Management Sciences &
Engineering Sciences. Civil Engineering programme after
PEC & UET approval started with effect from Fall 2018.
Civil Engineering discipline has ever growing demand.
Civil Engineering provides a base that is necessary in
building skills and competence to design and implement
construction projects. The Civil Engineering (CE)
Department plans to produce quality Civil Engineers fully
capable of providing solutions to the challenging
problems. The engineers should also be pivotal for the
research activities. Civil Engineering Lab
The department puts forth the following educational objectives:-
To impart state-of-the-art knowledge to the students in the field of Civil Engineering and produce
competent civil engineers who will play vital role in the national development.
To provide critical learning for a broad function in various areas of Civil Engineering, including
structural, environmental, geotechnical, water resources, transportation engineering and construction
management.
To impress upon them the spirit of discipline, teach them the code of ethics of the engineering profession
and impress upon them to follow it during their practical life.
To prepare graduate engineers to be competitive in both national and international market by

inculcating the engineering and managerial skills.

Software Engineering is the discipline of creating high-quality software environment in a systematic, controlled
and efficient manner, while maintaining it affordably. It involves the application of engineering concepts,
techniques, and methods to develop the software systems. A software engineering program develops
professionals who have a mastery of software development principles, theory, practice, and process. The goal of
Software Engineering is to use the science and technology already available to create products and tools for use.
The curriculum for the bachelor degree program covers all essentially needed areas, e.g., Software Engineering,
Computer Sciences and Software Quality and Testing while paying special attention towards Mathematics,
Physics and Communication Skills.
The Program curriculum ensures breadth across allied disciplines and supporting subjects; and depth in most
areas of the software engineering body of knowledge. The department puts forth the following educational
objectives for the students entering the Software Engineering program
Engineering Quintessence
Graduates will apply theoretical and practical knowledge of Software Engineering for analysis and design of
quality software systems of varying complexities. Abilities and skills of analytical thinking, logic formulation,
algorithm construction, complex designing, appropriate validation and economic maintenance will be inculcated.
They will also be prepared to successfully pursue higher studies.
Social Engagement
Graduates will be sensitive to environmental, professional, civic and societal contexts, committed to ethical
action, and engaged in life-long learning to remain effective members of their communities. They will be equipped
with the skills and attitudes to be responsible, effective and thoughtful contributors to society.
Innovation and Entrepreneurship
Graduates will apply their abilities, talents, and insights creatively and productively in fields and professions
beyond those explicitly represented in, or anticipated by, the Software Engineering curriculum. Graduates will
make their mark on the world in many ways: they will become entrepreneurs, academicians, technologists and
make creative contributions in engineering, science, and art.

Letter Grades Performance Levels
2 As A & A-
3 Bs B+, B & B-
3 Cs C+, C & C-
1D Simple D
F Fail
I Incomplete
Electronics Lab Computer Lab
33
The grade points assigned to the letter grades The following guideline for the award of Letter Grades
