The courses and research topics range from
those addressing the practical problems of
applications development, to those dealing with
the abstract and philosophical issues of computer
science and advanced computing. Students are
also encouraged to take courses and conduct
research in areas of Computer Science which
interact with Information Management, Industrial
Engineering, Manufacturing Systems
Engineering, Telecommunications, Mechatronics
and other fields covered at the Institute.
This field of study fosters high level teaching and research in computer science and aims to meet the growing regional demand for persons skilled in various aspects of computing. One focus is on educating educators who can, in turn, effectively disseminate knowledge and skills to more people. The core curriculum in computer science covers all aspects of computing, with the faculty particularly active in artificial intelligence, software engineering, networking and information systems. The program also endeavors to enhance teaching and research activities in computer architectures, object orientation, neural networks, multimedia and other rapidly-evolving areas in computer science.
