Kumaun Unviersity Semester Wise B.Sc. Computer Science Syllabus from 2016

Kumaun University Nainital

Proposed Syllabus for B. Sc. Semester program to be implemented from

Session 2016-17

Subject: Computer Science

The Course: The B.Sc.(P,M,CS) Computer Science Program is a 3-year (6 semesters) programme from 2016-17 onward. Earlier 3 year course consist of only one Exam at the end of the year.
In this programme of B.Sc. Computer Science Student get to study computer languages such as C, C++, Java and Advanced Internet Technologies, RDBMS, Data Structure and Algorithms,  XML and so on.  This course helps student in building a strong base in computer technology. As in this course student have to study Mathematics and Physics in Parallel which helps student in enhancing there knowledge in these subjects also. Meritorious students of this course can get admission directly to M.Sc. Computer Science or MCA in any University.


Right now, The Department of Computer Science is running 2 courses :
