1. Introduction to BS Computer Science Program

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
[ref WordNet Princeton definition].

Computer Science is the application of a systematic, disciplined and quantifiable approach to

the design, development, operation, and maintenance of software systems. It is in fact the
practice of designing and implementing large, reliable, efficient and economical software by
applying the principles and practices of engineering. The program aims to train students in all
aspects of software life cycle from specification through analysis and design to testing,
maintenance and evaluation of software product.

Computer Science spans a wide range, from its theoretical and algorithmic foundations to
cutting-edge developments in robotics, computer vision, intelligent systems, bioinformatics, and
other exciting areas. The overall scope of Computer Science may be viewed into the following
three categories:

• To develop effective ways to solve computing problems. For example, Computer Science
develops the best possible ways to store information in databases, send data over networks,
and display complex images. The theoretical background offered by Computer Science
allows determining the best performance possible, and their study of algorithms. It enables
to develop new problem-solving approaches that provide better performance.
• It devises new ways to use computers intelligently and effectively. Progress in the areas of
networking, database, and human-computer-interface came together as a result of the world-
wide-web, which changed the entire world. Now, researchers are working to make robots
that are practical aides and demonstrate intelligence, databases that create new knowledge
and, in general, use computers to do new things.
• It deals with the design and implementation of software systems. Computer Science
provides training and skills for the successful implementation of software systems that solve
challenging
programming jobs. Computer Science spans the range from theory to models, design and
programming. Computer Science offers a comprehensive foundation that permits graduates to
adapt to new technologies and new ideas.

2. Program Vision Statement
