Program Overview
The Program will provide students with an overview of computer science. This overview will include data structures, mobile and web development, databases, software engineering, security and numerical methods.
Objectives
- Developing problem solving abilities using a computer.
- Building the necessary skill set and analytical abilities for developing computer based solutions for real life problems.
- Imbibing quality software development practices.
- To create awareness about process and product standards.
Computer Science
The diploma and advanced diploma program is designed for those students seeking a two-year rather than four-year degree. The program stand alone but may also be the foundation for further study at the bachelor’s level. The program at AIES are meant to be taken in four semesters and consist of 60 credit hours.
