Introduction
The Department of Computer Science was officially established in 1995, however, M.Sc. Computer Science program had already been started since 1988. Today, department provides an excellent educational environment that aims to bring out best in anyone. As the computing industry matures, professional qualifications become more and more essential. The taught curriculum encompasses the recommendations of IEEE and ACM Joint Committee on Computer Science Curriculum and also conforms to the recommendations of the National Curriculum Revision Committee in the Information Technology and Computer Science, duly approved by the Higher Education Commission, Ministry of Education and Ministry of Science and Technology. The students in the Department of Computer Science have almost unlimited access to computers and the professional software tools that go with them. The Department has over 10 teaching laboratories/ interactive class rooms which are equipped with more than 400 Pentium IV/III based Multimedia PC's loaded with Windows NT, Windows 2000 Professional, Linux operating systems, SUN V890 Server, SUN StorEdge 6610 SAN and SUN ULTRASPARC Enterprise System with 40 SUN RAY-I Unix workstations. All these teaching laboratories/ interactive class rooms are networked to ten common Dual and Quad Pentium III Xeon based Servers. They are also connected to the University Fiber Optic based Campus LAN and to the outside world via Internet. Each of them is fitted with an overhead multimedia projector. Department is also going to have the facility of Video Conference Room funded by HEC which will provide an opportunity of access and connectivity for the University to the human resource across the globe. It will help to boost the level of academic and research activities in the University. The Department of Computer Science is also providing different services to the entire University; Firstly, the Department is looking after the huge Fiber Optic based Campus LAN; Secondly, the official web site of the University is also being maintained by this department; Thirdly, internet access to the University, including students, faculty and staff members is being provided, monitored and controlled by Computer Science Department. Last but not least, a specific section in the department provides technical and support services to all the users of computers in the University. Any computer related problem, anywhere in the University; efficient, hardworking and dedicated technical support staff is available just on a phone call. Another remarkable milestone which the Department of Computer Science has recently achieved is that it has attained the status of Cisco Local Academy. Cisco is going to donate bundle of equipment, after which the department is also going to conduct the Cisco training programs. It will be very useful for the people of Southern Punjab since no proper Network training facility is available in this area. This status will also be helpful to raise the quality of education in the other programs running in the department, as the Networking is an essential part of all of them. The detail of different academic program being offered by the Department is given below: Computer Science ProgrammesComputer Science degree is an excellent preparation for a future career. It sharpens the analytical skills of students as they discover the structures underlying software, stretches their creative talents as they design new systems and gives them the confidence to market their ideas to waiting world. The students will come to understand why systems work as they do - and what they learn will never go out of date for as long as people go on using computers. Although fashions in packages and programming languages come and go, the principles do not change and Computer Science is about principles. Yet it is more than that: the software packages we take for granted today are among the most complex artifacts ever created. To understand them one requires a degree of intellectual activity-matching that is required in any longer established Sciences Information Technology ProgrammesThe Information Society of the new millennium will require individuals with a range of skills in information handling, information management, multimedia presentation, analytical and problem solving techniques. The programs in Information Technology are designed for the students who wish to apply a high level of expertise to their chosen academic and career pathways in future as well as those who are considering IT related career in education, training, industry or government. The courses of reading for IT have been designed in the light of the recommendations of IEEE and ACM Joint Committee on Computer Science Curriculum and the recommendations of the National Curriculum Revision Committee in the Information Technology and Computer Science approved by HEC and MoST. The Information Technology degree programs are a blend of courses from IT and management and produce graduates which are equipped with both IT and management skills. Telecommunication
Programmes
We live in an environment where telecommunications
play a very important role. How we do business, how we spend our leisure time
and how we view ourselves is determined by our global telecommunications
systems. If you choose a telecommunications degree you will find that you have a
wide choice of specialization. Training in telecommunications will give you the
skills you'll need to advance in a quickly expanding job market. You will be
working in an exciting field which is constantly making breakthroughs. You could
set up your own business or work for a long established multi-national company.
TS programs provide you training in the necessary
skills including the application of computer technology in telecommunications,
how the digital age is applied in the field, fiber optic technology, amplitude
and frequency modulation and of course the Internet. Those of you who already
have experience in electronics and information technology are already at an
advantage and you can expect to have the best opportunities. |
