In the academic year of 1991-92, the Department of Computer Science came into existence with an extremely modest infrastructure comprising 3 computers but a great vision. Starting with the B.Sc. General in the annual mode, the academic programmes of the Department kept growing and finally in 1997, B.Sc. (Honours) in Computer Science was introduced. The Department of Computer Science at Kalindi College has kept pace with academic programmes offered by other colleges in the University. With highly qualified and experienced faculty using cutting edge technical assistance and techniques, it has emerged at the forefront among all the departments with high performing students. In the recent years, the Department has taken the lead in the digitization of the course structure and curriculum of the College. Currently, the department is running courses for B.Sc. (Hons) Computer science, Computer Science papers of Multidisciplinary Courses of Study with Three Core Disciplines formerly called B.Sc. (Programme) Physical Science and Multidisciplinary Courses of Study with Two Core Disciplines formerly known as B.A (Programme) in Computer Applications respectively apart from Computer Science papers of General Electives being offered to interdisciplinary hons and general programmes of the College. Department of Computer Science organizes Orientation Programmes, Departmental Fests, Student Awareness Programmes, Academic Conferences, Faculty Development Programmes and many other events on regular basis for overall development of the students and teachers. The students are also encouraged to participate in academic and non-academic inter-college and intra-college activities.
Generic Elective Papers: The students in all Honours and Program courses are required to exercise their option for Generic Elective Papers. It is to be noted that student admitted in one department's course has to study the Generic Elective paper being offered by other departments. The computer Science department offers one Elective paper for 1st and 2nd year students of other Honours courses for each semester and one Elective paper for 3rd year students(in each semester) of Programme courses. With these Elective papers, Students will have an edge in Industry 4.0 where students can carve their career with the knowledge of computer programming along with their core papers. These papers are designed in such a way that non-computer science students can learn and acquire basic computer understanding/programming so that they have an edge over their peers in future job markets. The interdisciplinary GE papers offered are:
Computing is at the heart of almost everything in our daily life nowadays. Every industry has good magnitude of intersection with Computer Science which is growing by the day. The Information Technology sector, an allied field of Computer Science, is growing at an even higher rate. The sector recorded the highest growth rate several times in last two decades. It generates the scope of careers for skilled computer science professionals and hence keeps the relevancy of the subject alive. The scope of Computer Science academic programmes covers a broad spectrum of career opportunities. MNCs give a different profile to a Computer Science graduate. To list a few careers options:-Android Programmer, Application Developer, Business Analyst, Data Analyst, Database Administrator, Games Developer, Information Systems Manager, IT Consultant, Multimedia Programmer, SEO Specialist, System Analyst, System Developer, Website Designer etc.
Apart from opting for the jobs available in the market, many of the graduates pursue higher studies such as M.Sc.(CS), MCA, MBA and research degrees after Master degree courses. |
