Aims
The B.Sc. Program in Computer Science & Engineering (CSE) is designed to produce skilled graduates in the field to satisfy the growing demands of computer engineering graduates in the home and abroad. It provides the students an opportunity to obtain the broad knowledge of Computer Science, Computer Engineering with the freedom to tailor the program according to the student's individual needs.
Eligibility for Admission
Students having minimum 2.5 GPA or second division both in SSC and HSC from science background may apply for admission into CSE as per the guideline of University Grants Commission (UGC) of Bangladesh. Students completing five O-level subjects and at least two A-level subjects and obtaining at least GPA 2.0 may apply for admission.
Credit Requirement and Duration of the Program
To obtain B.Sc. in Computer Science and Engineering, students will have to complete 154.5 credits with at least GPA 2.5. If any student fails in any course, she/he will get the opportunity to improve the grade by retaking the same in the subsequent semesters. The program having 8 semesters normally extends over four academic years.
Students willing to obtain a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science and Engineering will have to follow the general guidelines of degree requirements of the university.
The courses are offered as shown in the following tables.
