Curriculum Policy Computer Science

The contents of courses offered are revised after every two years and books are recommended to cope with the rapid developments which are taking place in Computer Science and Information Technology. BS (Computer Science) and MS (Computer Science) curricula have been redesigned in the light of recommendations of Task Force (on the Curriculum for Computer Science Programs for general Universities of Sindh) constituted by the universities of Sindh in August 1977 and new education policy of Govt. of Pakistan and the recommendations of University Grants Commission on the curriculum of Computer Science degree programs.
Thus all the curricula of Department of Computer Science are developed for CS/IT on the following policy:
"Curriculum should be made flexible so as to be responsive to the changing g structure of the market. The curricula shall encourage thinking, creativity and project construction ability. The curricula of CS/IT shall be made comparable with international standards and matching the needs of the next century by developing libraries, laboratories, and above all teaching staff".
