BS Computer Science

Undergraduate

The undergraduate degree program in Computer Science includes theoretical and algorithmic foundations, data structures, computer network design, modeling data and information processing, and artificial intelligence. Computer Science has the foundations of mathematics and engineering. Also, it heavily uses hypothesis testing and experimentation during the conceptualization, design, measurement, and refinement of new algorithms, information structures, and computer architectures.

Student Outcomes:

The students of BS Computer Science program are expected to attain the following outcomes by the time of graduation.

  1. SO1: Complete an accredited program of study that prepares graduates as competent computer science professionals equipped with theoretical knowledge and practical skills.
  2. SO2: Apply knowledge of computing fundamentals, computer science theory, mathematics, science, and relevant domain knowledge to model, analyze, and solve complex computing problems.
  3. SO3: Identify, formulate, investigate literature, and solve complex computing problems using analytical thinking, computational principles, algorithms, and appropriate research methodologies.
  4. SO4: Design, develop, implement, and evaluate computing-based solutions, intelligent systems, and software applications that satisfy specified requirements while considering societal, environmental, cultural, and ethical constraints.
  5. SO5: Select, adapt, and apply appropriate algorithms, programming paradigms, computing techniques, emerging technologies, and modern software tools while understanding their capabilities and limitations.
  6. SO6: Function effectively as an individual and as a member or leader of multidisciplinary and diverse teams in computing projects.
  7. SO7: Communicate effectively with technical and non-technical audiences through reports, presentations, software documentation, and professional discussions.
  8. SO8: Analyze and evaluate the impact of computing solutions on society, health, safety, legal frameworks, cybersecurity, culture, and the environment in local and global contexts.
  9. SO9: Demonstrate professional ethics, integrity, social responsibility, and adherence to professional standards in computing practice.
  10. SO10: Recognize the need for lifelong learning and continuously acquire new knowledge and skills to adapt to evolving computing technologies and professional practices.

The SOs provides graduates with the basis for attaining PEOs during their professional tenure. The broader defined PEOs were decomposed into more measurable and achievable SOs related to PEOs.

PEO-SO Mapping:

The student outcomes are mapped with the program educational objectives so that if we achieve the program learning outcomes, the program educational objectives would be considered to have been completed. The mapping of SOs with PEOs is mentioned in Table. Teaching different curriculum courses could achieve the program’s learning outcomes. As mentioned later, all these courses are related to the program learning outcome. Each course has its course learning outcome. Suppose the learning outcome of the course is achieved. In that case, the respective program learning outcome will be achieved, and ultimately, by attaining the program learning outcomes, we will accomplish the program’s educational objectives.
