Bachelor of Science (Computer Science) – BSc.CS

“Computers are incredibly fast, accurate, and stupid. Human beings are incredibly slow, inaccurate, and brilliant. Together they are powerful beyond imagination.”

– Albert Einstein

The Bachelor of Science in Computer Science (B.Sc. CS) program was started in the academic year 2024–25 under the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020. This three-year undergraduate program, structured across six semesters, is designed to offer multidisciplinary and flexible learning pathways, promoting both academic excellence and practical competence.

The curriculum integrates core concepts of computer science such as programming, algorithms, data structures, databases, operating systems, computer networks, and software engineering. It also offers students the opportunity to explore emerging areas like artificial intelligence, machine learning, data analytics, and cybersecurity.

Aligned with NEP 2020, the program encourages skill-based learning, conceptual clarity, and holistic development. Emphasis is placed on hands-on training, project-based learning, and internship opportunities, equipping students with real-world problem-solving abilities and industry-relevant skills.

Students are prepared to pursue higher education, research, or employment in diverse areas of IT and computer science.

Best Practice

E-Waste Collection and Donating for Recycling Drives

This initiative goes beyond environmental awareness it gives a crucial sense of corporate social responsibility (CSR) and sustainable practices in our future computer science professionals. We actively encourage and facilitate E-Waste Collection Drives throughout the academic year. Students, faculty, and staff are encouraged to collect and deposit their discarded electronic devices, batteries, and accessories in designated collection points within the college. Beyond collection, the department conducts awareness and education via mini-campaigns, workshops, or informative sessions during these drives.

Industrial Visit

With an aim to go beyond academics, industrial visit offers students a practical perspective on the world of work. Industrial visits are organized by colleges to students with an objective of providing students functional opportunities in different sectors like IT, Manufacturing and services, finance and marketing. Industrial visit helps to combine theoretical knowledge with industrial knowledge.

Objectives: –

Industrial visit provides students a practical perception on the domain of work.

It gives the students an acquaintance to current work practices to experience theoretical knowledge being taught at their college classrooms.

Industrial visits provides an opportunity to interact with industries and know more about industrial environment
