BACHELOR OF SCIENCE

in Computer Science

Program Description

The BS Computer Science program includes the study of computing concepts

and theories, algorithmic foundations and new developments in computing. The
program prepares students to design and create algorithmically complex software
and develop new and effective algorithms for soling computing problems.

The program also includes the study of the standards and practices in Software
Engineering. It prepares students to acquire skills and disciplines required for
designing, writing and modifying software components modules and applications
that comprise software solutions.

Program Educational Objectives

Within three to five years after obtaining a Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science,
our graduates are expected to:

quality software solutions and in research and development in various application
domains which includes the use of game technologies and data science.
2. Exhibited high standards of professionalism while maintaining social and ethical
responsibilities both in local and international organizational environment
3. Capable of communicating and engaging in life-long learning activities relevant
to their profession, including earning advanced degrees, attaining professional
certification and engaging in research activities to further nation building and
national development.

Program Outcomes

By the time of graduation, the students of the program shall be able to:
1. Apply knowledge of computing fundamentals, mathematics, science, and domain
knowledge appropriate for computer science specialization to the abstraction
and conceptualization of models from defined problems and requirements.
2. Apply knowledge in algorithms that can be used in solving complex programming
problems.
3. Apply software engineering practice over the entire system lifecycle activities
and management of risks involved in software and embedded systems which
meet specified needs with appropriate consideration for public health and safety,
cultural, societal, and environmental considerations.
4. Adapt appropriate techniques, resources and modern computing tools to complex
activities, with an understanding of the limitations to accomplish a common goal.
5. Acquire knowledge and understanding of information security issues in relation
to the design, development and use of information systems.
6. Work with a range of technologies employed within the game industry, such as
hand-held devices, desktop devices, and consoles
7. Utilize the tools and techniques used in the development of mobile systems
8. Use scientific methods such as data science in analyzing and interpreting data.
9. Utilize new and emerging technologies, such as artificial intelligence, cloud
technology and natural language processing, as a necessity for life-long learning
 10. Formulate solution to the complex problem using a programming language,
mathematics, algorithms, data structures, or an appropriate blend of
technologies.
11. Communicate effectively with the computing community and with society at large
by being able to comprehend and write effective reports, design documentation,
make effective presentations, and give clear instructions.
12. Adopt appropriate industry practices in resolving real-world issues with legal,
social, ethical and professional consideration involved in the utilization of
computing technology
13. Engaged in research as an individual and as a member or leader for continued
development of the individual, organization, and society in a multidisciplinary
setting.

Admission Requirements
1. High School graduates and transferees seeking admission to the BSCS program
must meet the criteria and cut-off scores set by the University for the BSCS
program.
2. Shiftees must not have accumulated 15 or more units of failures.

Retention Policies
1. Students who fail in 50% or more of the subjects taken during the previous
semester will be asked to shift to another course. Courses dropped are
considered failed.
2. Students who fail in two or more major subjects in one semester shall be put on
probation.
3. Student must not incur more than two failures in the same Math or CS Core/
Professional courses; otherwise they will be advised to drop from the program.
