needs of society.
Morning
Learning outcome of the Degree Program
• An ability to analyze and identify the problem, and define the
computing requirements appropriate to its solution.
• An ability to design, implement, and evaluate a computer-based
system, process, component, or program to meet desired
needs.
• An ability to apply knowledge of computing and mathematics
appropriate to the discipline. In particular, students should be
able to apply this knowledge in a way that demonstrates
comprehension of the tradeoffs involved in the modeling,
design and development of software systems of various scales
and complexity.
• An ability to function effectively on teams to accomplish a
common goal.
• An understanding of professional, ethical, legal, security and
social issues and responsibilities.
• An ability to communicate effectively through written as well as
through oral communication with a range of audiences.
• Recognition of the need for and an ability to engage in
continuing professional development.
• An ability to use current techniques, skills, and tools necessary
for computing practice
