Program Description:
Advances in material technology, hardware design and manufacturing, and program development paradigms have opened a whole new era of computing. Contemporary computing hardware is designed for power economy, green computing, and parallelism. As the world is becoming more and more dependent on digital data, storing, organizing, analyzing and retrieving tremendous amount of data is at the centre of the ICT framework. Moreover, access and processing of data is ubiquitous more than ever, fuelling the need for distributing storage and computing. Technology has a strong influence in shaping the overall development levels of every nation. Our country, as a developing nation, should align academic policies with the world trend of acquiring and adapting contemporary technology in order to foster national economy. An academic program that prepares and creates a learning and research platform for engaging in demanding areas of computer hardware and software is a demanding mission. Such platforms empower the nation’s potential in harnessing research and study results to be put into work and our desire to build better knowledge based and technology savvy society.
