The
Department of Computer Science and Information Technology
offers courses for instruction and training leading to the
examinations for the award of-
1.
Master of Science in Computer Science and Information Technology,
M.Sc.(CIT)
2. Master of Science in Computer
Science and Application, M.Sc.(CSA)
3. Post Graduate Diploma in
Computer Science and Information Technology, PGD (CIT)
4. Post Graduate Diploma in
Computer Science and Application, PGD (CSA)
5. Bachelor of Science in Computer
Science and Information Technology, B.Sc.(CIT)
The
Master of Science in Computer Science and Information Technology,
Master of Science in Computer Science & Application, Postgraduate
Diploma in Computer Science and Information Technology, Postgraduate
Diploma in Computer Science & Application involve varying
hours of research, projects, course works requiring 36, 36,
24, 24 credit hours will normally require 3, 3, 2, and 2 semesters
respectively.
The
Bachelor of Science in Computer Science and Information Technology
comprises of four years of study consisting of eight consecutive
semesters of sixteen weeks duration each. However, there is
a provision for award of Higher Diploma in Computer Science
and Information Technology after successful completion of
three years (six semesters) of study. Higher Diploma in Computer
Science and Information Technology graduates may also continue
further for completion of B.Sc. in Computer Science and Information
Technology programme. The admission requirements are terminal
Higher/Upper Secondary School Certificate with science background
i.e., university entry requirements. The total contact hours
in classes and laboratories are 25-30 hours per week. The
curricula includes modern courses like web development, web
programming, RDBMS, Multimedia Application, Visual Programming
including conventional theories.Moreover, advanced courses
like Distributed and Parallel Processing, Distributed Operating
System, Object Oriented Modeling and Design are included.
It also covers some non-departmental courses like Chemistry,
Physics, Mathematics, Commerce, Humanities and language that
will help the students to improve their logic and to understand
the people and environment and teach them to cope with people
wisely. Courses are designed to completely fulfil the engineering
requirements.
The
department provides laboratory facilities through Computer
Centre equipped with modern PCs connected with networks running
on Novell, Linux, AIX, SCO UNIX and Windows 95/98/2000 operating
systems.
The
CIT department also deals with the computer related courses
of other departments of the University. It also supports e-mail
and internet facilities to all the students and employees
of the University through Computer Centre. Short courses are
being offered in the semester break, normally in November-December
every year on timely and demanding topics.Participants from
different OIC member countries take part in the short course.
A short course on "Relational Database Management System
Using ORACLE" was held from 06 October to 10 October
2003.
