OBJECTIVES

EDUCATIONAL AIMS OF PROGRAMME

The MSc in Computer Science is an advanced degree which aims to

develop specialist knowledge in areas of Computer Science not covered

extensively at the undergraduate level.

The primary aim of the theoretical modules is to introduce students to core

areas of theoretical computer science, to provide practical experience of

that theory and to introduce students to the technologies through which

theory-based tools are implemented.

The systems modules aim to give students experience of the theory and

practice of designing programmable systems, with particular emphasis on

the design of concurrent and distributed applications.

THE PRINCIPLE AIMS OF THE DEGREE

Develop graduates possessing a thorough understanding of one specialist area

of Computer Science

Equip students with advanced computer-based scientific and engineering skills

Provide a programme of study that benefits from our research strengths in

Computer Science

Enable students to develop communication skills, initiative, professionalism

and the ability to work independently as well as with others

Provide graduates with the knowledge and skills necessary for professional

careers or for postgraduate research.

METHODOLOGY

THEORETICAL FOUNDATION

Computer sciences lay the theoretical foundation for information and

computer systems as well as the application of those foundations.

Whereas the theoretical computer science focuses more on formal methods.

Such as algorithms and data structures, the applied computer science closes

a gap to other disciplines and offers solutions in areas such as artificial

intelligence or health systems.

This M.Sc. is different in that it focuses on teaching theory and its

applications.

Students are exposed to programming languages and platforms as well as

methodologies for the creation, capture and presentation of text, graphics,

audio and moving images.

ADVANTAGE OF M.SC COMPUTER SCIENCE

PROGRAMME OUTCOMES

The programme provides opportunities for learners to achieve the

following outcomes:

(a) Knowledge and understanding

Understand the process of building computational systems in all its stages and beable to demonstrate this understanding in supervised system building efforts

Have advanced knowledge of the state of the art in a CS research area. The exactspecialisms available vary over time, but generally fall in the areas of: theory,software engineering, high performance computing and databases.

Understand Informatics research methodologies at a level that permits the student toengage in future doctoral research

Know the main research methodologies used in Informatics

INTELLECTUAL SKILL

Develop literature review and analysis skills

Specify a research question and identify the relevant background literature

Graduates completing the MSc will be qualified to take up a strong

analytical role in assistive technology or software development teams

providing advice, guidance and planning for universal design and

accessibility.

Professional/subject/specific/practical skills

Develop project skills

Develop proposal writing skills

Undertake a substantive project (4-5 months) on the proposed topic

Write an extended research-style report

TRANSFERABLE SKILLS

Deploy logical, analytical, and problem solving skills and to synthesize

solutions

Show self-direction and time management skills when working

independently

Develop skills needed for undertaking extended projects, including reviews,

time management and extended reports

Communicate effectively through a variety of media including oral, visual,

written, diagrammatic and on-line

Make effective use of learning materials and to acquire and apply

knowledge from a variety of sources.

The ability to work effectively with people from different cultural contexts

The ability of working to strict deadlines and effective time management

MODE OF STUDY

PROJECT WORK

The types of activity involved in each project will vary but will include

most of the following:

Researching the literature and gathering background information.

Analysing requirements, comparing alternatives and specifying a solution.

Analysing and extending relevant theory in novel ways.

Designing and implementing the solution.

Experimenting with and evaluating the solution.

Discussing existing results and presenting new research.

Developing written and oral presentation skills.

The project is conducted individually by the student under the supervision of a member of teaching staff. Students are formed into groups for the purpose of a Review Meeting.

COURSE STRUCTURE

COURSE STRUCTURE

The programme for the degree of Master of Science in COMPUTERSCIENCE shall consist of two Academic years divided into four semesters.Each semester consist of 90 working days.

The course M.sc in Computer science is very popular amongst the newrising market and thus has plenty of jobs related to the field.

That is probably the reason that so many students are opting for thiscourse.

The huge numbers of private as well as government colleges are proof ofthe high demand of this course. The demand is high because the coursereally has a lot of career opportunities in this modern era.

educational paths to a computer career include majors in fields such asbusiness, mathematics and engineering with a minor or double major incomputer and information sciences.

PROGRAMEE STRUCUTE

The period of study for the degree is two year.

The emphasis in this course is on independent placement work.

educational paths to a computer career include majors in fields such as

business, mathematics and engineering with a minor or double major in

computer and information sciences.

MCA (VS) MSC

In the foreign countries post graduate degree only M.S (master of science)

not Master of computer Applications(MCA).so the M.sc computer science

is high eligible for foreign countries.

In M.C.A degree duration on 3 years the syllabus followed by implements

of Under graduate level.

The M.Sc computer science duration on 2 year and syllabus followed by

advance level of trends.

In MCA all allied subject based on UG syllabus

In MCA syllabus is prepared non computer science student easily pickup,

so the syllabus is beginners level only.

No of papers studied in MCA = 25

No of papers studied in MSC = 18

RESEARCH

provide the student with the basis of transferable knowledge and skills

necessary for a successful research-oriented career in industry or academia,

with a particular orientation to computing-based disciplines.

understand modes of communication in the computing sciences

appreciate the structure of the literature of the computing sciences ingeneral and a chosen research field in particular

methodically search the literature to investigate a research topic

make effective presentations both orally and in writing

OPPORTUNITIES

The field of Computer Science has a lot of applications in various areas of

work. Therefore various areas need the service of experts in the area of

Computer Science.

Almost every field is computerized now which improves the career aspects

of these graduates. Certain certifications will help them to work in several

job profiles as well.

They can do certain higher studies in the field that will perk up their

remuneration.
