The philosophy of the B.Sc. Computer Science programme in NOUN leverages on the following key concepts:
The Department of Computer science seeks to build and develop human capacity to high level through comprehensive, flexible and accessible educational programmes, research in collaboration with industry and the government. We hope to deliver an experience that prepares our students for success in their career, thus molding them into job creators rather than job seekers after graduation.
The students will be grounded in theoretical and practical aspects of Computer Science so that they are capable of finding effective solutions to real world problems using state-of-the arts skills acquired in the period of their study.
They will be prepared to face any challenges and situation in the quest to find a niche in the continuously evolving global digital economy.
The B. Sc Computer Science programme is designed mainly to make the students be up-to-date with emerging developments in Computer Science as well as develop sufficient skills in the theory and application of Mathematics. Thus, at the end of the programme, graduates should endowed with the following skills and abilities:
To be admitted for the B. Sc Computer Science programme, a candidate is expected to:
For graduation with a B.Sc.(Hons.) in Computer Science, the students must have a minimum of 147 credit units of core courses and 16 units of elective courses for an 8 semester structure and 111 credit units of core courses and 16 units of elective courses for a 6 semester structure.
