1. DEPARTMENT MISSION
Our mission is to rigorously train our students in computing and affiliated fields, so that
they can serve humanity with skill, knowledge and high character, and be a source of
pride to the nation of Pakistan.
2. INTRODUCTION
Computer science is the study of the theory, experimentation, and engineering that
form the basis for the design and use of computers. It is the scientific and practical
approach to computation and its applications and the systematic study of the
feasibility, structure, expression, and mechanization of the methodical procedures (or
algorithms) that underlie the acquisition, representation, processing, storage,
communication of, and access to information.
(Note: Adopted from Higher Education Commission (HEC) /National Computing Education Accreditation Council
(NCEAC).)
3. PROGRAM INTRODUCTION
The Computer Science program in PUCIT has been designed to train students in all
aspects of software life cycle from specification through analysis and design to testing,
maintenance and evaluation of software product. The graduating students are
equipped with such skills that make them highly suitable for local and international job
markets.
(Note: Adopted from Higher Education Commission (HEC) /National Computing Education Accreditation Council
(NCEAC).)
4. PROGRAM OBJECTIVES
The objectives of the BS Computer Science program are to
1. Build a strong foundation in theoretical concepts in computing and software
engineering.
2. Provide a system-wide perspective of hardware and low-level software design and
development.
3. Develop proficiency in designing and analyzing algorithms for building efficient
solutions.
4. Nurture problem-solving skills, clarity of thought, and creativity.
5. Prepare students for rigors of graduate studies, as well as for careers in the industry.
6. Provide a balanced exposure to liberal arts.
7. Prepare students for effective oral and technical communication.
8. Foster a sense of professional and ethical responsibilities.
