PROGRAM OVERVIEW

 

         The Bachelor of Science in Computer Science program is a study of concepts and theories, algorithmic foundations, implementation and application of information and computing solutions. It prepares students to be IT professional and researches and to be proficient in designing and developing computing solutions.

 

         The program is designed to produce world-class IT professionals that is not only nationally accredited but also globally competitive and who will be professionally competent, morally upright, and socially responsible contributors to national development.

 

          The curriculum is based on the standards set by the Commission on Higher Education (CHED) and is benchmarked from the curricula of leading academic institutions, national and international, offering similar IT programs and addresses the needs of the industry.

 

     The courses in this program will be delivered through (a) interactive discussions in the classroom utilizing visual aids and other teaching materials to gain the knowledge and (b) laboratory classes to acquire the required skills and competencies.

 

Specifically, some of the teaching methodologies to be utilized are:

 

• Interactive lecture and discussion

• Problem solving

• Simulation (hands-on machine problems and exercises)

• Individualize learning

• On-the-job training

 

    Upon completion of this program, the students with the necessary competencies, should be able to perform the duties, responsibilities and acquired attitude relevant to the job title of:
