Faculty of Computing and Information Technology Faculty

The department of Artificial Intelligence and Data Science aims to facilitate students in becoming an expert in data science by mastering analytics, visualization, and governance of data, and discovering the fascinating world of AI. These emerging fields have disrupted every industry sector through the rapid integration of technology, algorithms, data and mobile apps. The curriculum is designed to complement the traditional knowledge of computer science with the latest courses in data science and machine learning. The curriculum will provide a balanced mixture of practical experiences and theoretical knowledge necessary for success in the rapidly evolving data science and artificial intelligence industry. The programs offered in the department will provide an excellent platform for the students to work in the industry and pursue further formal education.

The primary intention of an academic program in Head of Department Computer Science is to develop the student's critical professional thinking and intuition. Therefore, thecurriculum must provide a balanced mixture of theory and practical experiences at foundation and advance levels to make the graduate capable of sound professional decisions. As a result, the graduate should assume responsible positions in business, government, and education at the research, development, and planning levels. The Program should also provide an excellent foundation for further formal learning and training.

To become a center of excellence in both teaching and research of computer science on an international level. One of the key elements here is to prepare the graduates for the future by incorporating newly emerging technologies in the curriculum. Different Programs will provide a broad understanding of the field via introducing concepts, theory, and techniques. Intensive education/training in focused areas of Computer Science. Encouraging students to develop and use abstract models in addition to applying respective technology in practical situations.Development of special communication skills both oral and written to produce well-organized reports, which clearly delineate objectives, methods of solution, results, and conclusions for a complex task.Provision of formal foundations for higher learning. Dynamic and flexible enough to maintain currency with the latest scientific and technological developments in the field. Provision of professional orientation to prepare students for Industry.

The department of Software Engineering has remained one of the leading departments of the university since its foundation in 2013. It is committed to strengthen the discipline of Software Engineering by integrating research and teaching with latest trends and innovation in the mentioned discipline. The increasing influence of Software Engineering on all the aspects of daily business cannot be denied. By understanding its significance, the department is well equipped with sufficient well qualified human and state-of-the-art physical resources. Its graduates are well-versed in practicing the principles of Software Engineering. It also aims to go further and further to meet the challenges of the rapidly changing technological world.
