Program Educational Objectives

The educational objectives of the undergraduate program “Computer Science” are to issue
graduates who will
1. be productive, responsible computing science professionals conducting research and/or design
developing and maintaining projects in the various areas of Computer Science,
2. understand and apply ethical issues and social aspects of computing science in performing their
duties as computer science professionals,
3. continue the learning of new technologies in the computer science area through self-directed
professional development or post-graduate education.

Level Of Learning Achievement

The learning outcomes are defined in the disciplines envisaged by the Bachelor Program of
“Computer Science”, which are taught in I-VIII semester. To reach this level means:

 Knowledge of fundamental principles and theories in computer science;

 Ability to use key and fundamental algorithms of computer science in different fields of
science and practice;

 Ability to use modern programming languages and tools;

 Ability to operate and use different purpose tools of computer science and information
technology.
Fields of Employment
Fields of employment of Bachelor of Computer Science are: Governance bodies, educational
institutions and organizations of different forms of ownership which use computer technologies for
their activities. Bachelor of computer science is predominantly prepared for the development and
use of modern methods in the field of economy, management and financial activities. Bachelor of
Computer Science can occupy any position that according to the laws of Georgia require higher
education. The presented bachelor program takes care of graduates’ employment, by means of
providing opportunities for continues education, as well as by means of invited lectures
participating in the program: most of them are representatives of big employers at Georgian labor
market, their tight relationship with students increases the chance of employment of successful
students with favorable conditions.

The Possibility to Continue Learning

Bachelor of Computer Science will be able to continue their study at master degree programs in
Computing area, which represent the extension of the undergraduate program. The graduates can
continue their education also at master programs in mathematics, engineering, and other Natural
Sciences those prerequisite are programming and mathematical knowledge. Major specialty-
choosing deadline

The third semester is the deadline for choosing major specialty (optimal is the second semester). If students
change their mind, they will be able to continue learning at other bachelor programs being carried out at the
faculty (mathematics, electronics).

Program Delivery Modes

The Computer Science program is offered as an on-campus daytime program. Our academic year
is divided into two semesters (fall and spring). Each semester 15 weeks of instruction, with the
sixteenth week used for final examinations.
The required courses in computer science are offered in every semester, and the most of elective
ones are offered at least once a year. Most undergraduate courses are offered during daytime.
There are three basic program delivery modes:
Lectures: verbal, problem-based learning (PBL), demonstration method, induction, deduction,
analysis and synthesis.
Seminars, practical and laboratory teaching: verbal, book-based method, laboratory and
demonstration methods, practical methods, induction methods, analysis method, and synthesis
method, electronic attending (E-learning).
Team Projects: Verbal, PBL, E-learning, cooperative learning, collaborative work.

Grading scheme and grade distribution guidance

The student’s knowledge is being evaluated according to the following system: “Excellent”, “Very
good”, “Good”, “Satisfactory”, “Sufficient”, “Marginal fail” and “Fail”
A student is evaluated in accordance with the following principle:
 Scores Evaluation Classification of GPA of
Evaluation Evaluation
91 and more (A) “Excellent” Positive 4.0
81 -90 (B) “Very good” Positive 3.0
71 -80 (C) “Good” Positive 2.0
61 -70 (D) “Satisfactory” Positive 1.0
51 -60 (E) “Sufficient” Positive 0.5
41 -50 (FX) “Marginal Fail” Negative 0
40 and below (F) “Fail” Negative 0

The student’s final mark in a specific subject is determined by the number of point collected by
him/her in the different components (lecture, seminar, practical studies, laboratory exercises) in the
course of interim and final (examination) evaluation.

The maximum a viable point in each course is 100. Final exam does not exceed 40 points, interim
evaluation represents a combination of test scores, presentation in the class, and team or
individual projects. The weight of each components are different for different course and are
defined in syllabuses
Grading System of the CS Program is consistent with the TSU standard grading system:

Evaluation Scores GPA

A 91-100 4.0
B 81-90 3.0
C 71-80 2.0
D 61-70 1.0
E 51-60 0.5
F-FX 0-50 0.0
