Department of Computer Science

Department Features

Study hardware and software as an integrated system, and develop a broad range of skills.

The essence of computer science, which defines our department, is the automation of all things. Many of the technologies around us are the result of computer science. Take tablet computers, for instance. They are made possible by media technologies like speech recognition, communication technologies like 5G, and the computational systems that control them. Our department aims to effectively combine these elements to train engineers who will become leaders in advancing information systems.

• Department Features

  The Department of Computer Science confers a degree to students who successfully complete the required credits and acquired the following skills:

   

  (1) Acquired general skills essential for professional and social life, along with desirable attitudes, human qualities, and a broad understanding of modern society. 

  (2) Gained fundamental knowledge and skills in information science, including both hardware and software used to control and operate systems. 

  (3) Developed the ability to independently identify unresolved social issues within the field of information science and acquired the specialized knowledge and logical thinking needed to address these problems, including physical computing, media processing, programming, and software engineering. 

  (4) Gained the ability to solve problems from a broad perspective, applying specialized knowledge and techniques in computing, media processing, programming, and software engineering, beyond just the information science domain. 

  (5) Acquired presentation and communication skills to clearly explain their thought processes and decisions, using specific examples and supporting evidence. 

  (6) Developed the ability to effectively participate in group work and research activities, utilizing team-building methods to develop cooperative relationships. 

  (7) Understand the ethics and social responsibilities that must be upheld as a professional in information science.
• Curriculum Policy

  To enhance the diploma policy of the Department of Computer Science, the curriculum will be structured according to the following guidelines.

   

  (1) Offer a variety of subjects to deepen students' understanding of professional awareness, lifelong learning skills, intercultural understanding, and social contribution, as well as knowledge of human culture, society, and nature. 

  (2) Provide courses that develop the foundational knowledge and general abilities required in the field of information science. 

  (3) Offer core courses covering physical computing, media processing, programming, software engineering, and other essential knowledge and techniques, along with a broad range of subjects that encourage a wide perspective. Practical application through experiments, hands-on training, and exercises will be emphasized to develop an active and practical approach to problem-solving. 

  (4) Provide specialized courses to develop advanced knowledge and skills, enabling students to apply their foundational knowledge and general abilities. Students will learn to set independent challenges and collaborate with others to plan, execute, verify, and improve actions through experiments, practical exercises, and seminars, culminating in their graduation research. 

  (5) Offer courses that promote an understanding of the ethics and social responsibilities that professionals, including engineers, must uphold. These include respecting life, complying with laws, and prohibiting actions such as data falsification, theft, and plagiarism.
• Admissions Policy

  The Department of Computer Science develops students capable of designing and building information processing systems tailored to specific needs, with expertise in both software and hardware. By learning cutting-edge applied technologies in fields such as communication, networking, multimedia (including images and sound), and artificial intelligence, students will gain the ability to identify complex engineering problems with multiple potential solutions or unresolved answers. They will also learn to create plans for addressing these challenges and design information processing systems based on those plans, leading to comprehensive evaluations. Additionally, students will develop the ability to engage in logical discussions about technical issues, whether with other specialists or non-experts, and work collaboratively to solve problems.

   

  〈Ideal Student Profile〉

   

  1. Students who are more interested in "creating" software than simply "using" it.
  2. Students eager to learn about the hardware and network technologies that support software.
  3. Students passionate about hands-on analysis, design, and problem-solving.
