Masters of Science in Computer Science and Information Technology (M.Sc.CSIT) is a two-year four-semester program.
The M. Sc. Computer Science and Information Technology curriculum is designed by closely following the courses practiced in accredited international universities, subject to the condition that the intake students are mostly from three years B. Sc. Computer Science program at Tribhuvan University. In addition to the standard core and elective computer science courses, the program offers service courses to meet the need of high technology application.
The foundation and core courses are designed to meet the graduate program requirement, and the service courses are designed to meet the need of fast changing computer technology and application.
Students enrolled in the graduate program are required to take course in design and implementation of computer software systems, foundation in the theoretical model of computer science, and functional background of computer hardware. All graduation students are required to complete 40 credit hours of computer science courses.
Objective
The objective of the M. Sc. Computer Science program at Tribhuvan University is to offer intensive course in the design, theory, programming and application of computers. The courses are designed to admit student who have completed B. Sc. (3 years) program of Tribhuvan University or its equivalent.
Eligibility for Admission
A degree in B.Sc. in Computer Science; BE-computer, electronics, BTech or curriculum equivalent to bachelor level program in computer science at Tribhuvan University, is required for admission.
Students having master’s degree in Science (Physics, Statistics and Mathematics) and students of four year degree in engineering can also apply for admission provided they have completed pre-requisite courses needed to enroll in the first year course of M.Sc.CSIT program. The selection for admission is based on entrance examination.
