Course Overview
Computer network plays an important role in human life. We are communicating using voice, data, and video all a time through this computer network and it becomes part of human communication media. We are dealing with many applications every day that need data to be traveling from one end to the other. How data travel, how to secure these data are the question to be the answer in this program of Bachelor of Computer Science (Computer Network and Security). Students are trained to be Computer Scientists who can utilize Computer Science techniques in managing, analyzing, modeling, monitoring, developing and solving problems in the field of a computer network and computer security.
         Core computer science courses will equip students to become software and application developer. Core majoring will furnish with technical knowledge and hands-on in a computer network and security. Elective courses will give the extra information on network analysis and administration, network programming, cryptography, security management and security programming.
