| Welcome! On behalf of the faculty, staff, and students of the Department of Computer Sciences, I greet you! For Computer Scientists the current era is full of excitement and challenges as the discipline is now widely recognized to be an essential source of tools and techniques for advancements in nearly all spheres of human endeavor. Computer Science is a fascinating subject, and one that is now indispensable in our lives.
Almost every aspect of modern life involves computing – from mobile phones, TVs, planes, trains and cars, to gaming, security and medicine. Every organization’s payroll, customer records and finances are held electronically, sometimes containing millions and millions of records. The digital world is really upon us. Looking to the future, initiatives such as cloud computing will connect us all through small portable devices, enhancing social networking and allowing us to exchange audio and video data from our daily lives. |

| Keeping in mind the absolute dependence of the contemporary world requirements over Information technology the programs offered by the department are tailored towards producing computer scientists capable of achieving new heights in innovation and enhancement of technology to provide the world an even better tomorrow. Our programs are accredited by the Higher Education commission and to achieve excellence we strictly follow the standard curriculum guidelines as laid down by the HEC. |

| The future holds many challenges. The architecture of computers that we deal with everyday is changing: multi-core processors are here and are fast replacing the single-CPU/single-core desktop and laptop. Entertainment in the form of games, films, and music now relies heavily on high performance computing. Computer hardware and software pervades devices and equipment that we use every day and has thus become the primary source of flexible and varied functionality – and hence a key driver of the global economy. Projects of national and global importance in science and engineering seek computer science as an essential means for advancement and service. Our faculty and staff work tirelessly to provide flexible, attractive, and relevant education at the undergraduate and graduate levels to generate the workforce capable of meeting these varied challenges. |
