Syllabus for T.Y.B.Sc Semester V and VI

Program: Bachelor of Science

Course: Computer Science

(As per Choice Based Semester and Grading System with effect from
Academic Year 2019 - 2020)
 Preamble

This is the third year curriculum in the subject of Computer Science. The revised structure is designed to
transform students into technically competent, socially responsible and ethical Computer Science
professionals. In these Semesters we have made the advancements in the subject based on the previous
Semesters Knowledge.

In the first year basic foundation of important skills required for software development is laid. Second
year of this course is about studying core computer science subjects. The third year is the further
advancement which covers developing capabilities to design formulations of computing models and its
applications in diverse areas.

The proposed curriculum contains two semesters, each Semester contains two Electives: Elective-I and II.
Every Elective contains three papers based on specific areas of Computer Science. It also includes one Skill
Enhancement paper per semester, helps the student to evaluate his/her computer science domain
specific skills and also to meet industry expectations. This revised curriculum has not only taken the
specific areas of computer science into consideration but will also give the opportunity to the student to
prove his/her ability in the subject practically through the Project Implementation. In Semester V and
Semester VI student has to undertake a Project. It can boost his/her confidence and also can encourage
the student to perform innovations in the subject as the choice of the Project topic is kept open covering
most of the areas of Computer Science subject as per the students interest and the subject they have
learned during the Course.

Proposed Curriculum contains challenging and varied subjects aligned with the current trend with the
introduction of Machine Intelligence specific subject such as Artificial Intelligence, Information Retrieval.
Data Management related subjects such as Cloud Computing and Data Science. Image processing topics
such as Game Programming, Digital Image Processing. Introduction of physical world through Architecting
of IoT and Wireless Sensor Networks and Mobile Communication. Security domain is also evolved by the
introduction of Ethical Hacking, Cyber Forensic and Information and Network Security. To get the hands
on experience Linux Server Administration and Web Services topics are included.

In essence, the objective of this syllabus is to create a pool of technologically savvy, theoretically strong,
innovatively skilled and ethically responsible generation of computer science professionals. Hope that the
teacher and student community of University of Mumbai will accept and appreciate the efforts.
