Introduction
In this modern era of the information age, the field of computing is advancing at an ultra-high speed. With the recent advancements in different areas of computing e.g. Internet of Things, Big Data, Cloud Computing, Computer Vision, Cyber Security, although there has been a growing demand to excel in these particular areas, however, the importance of having a strong foundation of the core principles of computing also has more attention. The need to build the core competency in the area of a foundation of computing, the underlying hardware and software platforms, programming interfaces, complex algorithms, trends in user interface designs, and the emergence of new businesses, has increased. The Department of Computer Science is offering a BS program in Computer Science. The curriculum formulated by HEC is followed. Similarly, Department of Computer science want to start the MS in Computer Science and BS Software Engineering programs in coming Fall semester 2022. The Department actively organizes special lectures, seminars, training, tutorials, workshops, and study tours for its students. The Department of Computer Science is dedicated to providing the students with the best quality of teaching, state-of-the-art lab facilities, research and development environment. Our main incentive is to develop and improve the professional and technical skills of our students.
