Message from HOD
Computing education sharpens logical thinking and problem-solving—skills essential for the digital era. At the Department of Computing, we cultivate researchers, leaders, and industry-ready professionals through rigorous curricula, close mentoring, and research on real-world problems. Our focus is simple: build strong fundamentals, inspire innovation, and uphold ethical practice.
Logic. Innovation. Impact.
With more than eight purpose-built computer laboratories, project-based learning, and strong industry linkages, students gain the technical depth and professional polish to excel in software houses, multinational companies, academia, and research organizations. Our BSCS, BSIT, and BS Cyber Security programs are accredited by NCEAC, reflecting our commitment to quality, relevance, and outcomes that open doors locally and abroad.
