B.S. (Hons.) / (Hons. with Research) in Computer Science

Computer Science at the undergraduate level expands your understanding of programming logic, computer systems and networks at a deep level. It provides a solid foundation in various aspects of computing and technology.

This programme serves as a robust cornerstone for students venturing into the realm of Computer Science, encompassing vital facets such as foundational programming skills and computer system concepts. It focusses on creating links between theory and practice and applies the fundamental principles and methods of Computer Science to a wide range of applications.

MINOR DEGREE IN DATA SCIENCE
Additionally, students can pursue a minor degree in Data Science by taking the following subjects:

• Calculus
• Probability and Statistics
• Statistics for Data Science
• Data Analysis and Visualization
• Linear Algebra for Data Science
• Optimization for Machine Learning
• Data Mining and Machine Learning
• Big Data Analysis
• Cloud Computing

In its current form, these subjects are distributed as one per semester, on an average.
If opted for the Data Science minor, the student additionally gets awarded a minor degree in Data Science. The student then gets awarded a minor degree in that subject.

The course structure embellishes a student with multiple skills necessary to be a specialist in Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence and Data Science by initiating the students in multiple streams of learning. For example, the programming skill is initiated with Problem Solving in the first semester, leading to Data Structures and Algorithms in the second semester, further into Object Oriented programming concepts, Software Engineering culminating in a project work. In another stream of learning, a student understands foundations in Calculus, leading to Probability and Statistics, further into Linear Algebra, to culminate in Data Mining and Machine Learning.

Notwithstanding the theoretical and practical labs, students with research capabilities can take a research project and students with analytical capabilities can take a software development project in their final year. This adds tremendous confidence into students about their capability to join research, software development, AI, data engineering and data science organizations.

In essence, there is enough breadth offered in multiple streams of learning and critical depth offered by diving deep in each stream as the student progresses. This leads to the development of very mature professionals in Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence and Data Science.

The culmination of the four-year program results in an honours degree, symbolizing a deep comprehension of both Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence. Students emerge with a well-rounded skill set, having navigated through the foundational principles of computing to advanced AI applications.
