Bachelor of Science in Information Technology

Welcome to the IT Department!

Greetings from the Information Technology Department!

With the pool of faculty members of the IT Department of Pangasinan State University San Carlos Campus, we’d like to extend our warmest welcome to all you.

Be it known that the prime goal of the Information Technology Department is to get students ready for the challenges of the dynamic internet world. The department provides a wide range of programs that are constantly expanding, reflecting both the present and the future of information technology and all computing professions.

A Bachelor of Science in Information Technology with a concentration in Web and Mobile Technologies is now available from the department. Despite having a theoretical foundation, this program is adaptable to the quick rate of technological advancement.

 

The academic activities and students are extremely important to the information technology faculty. The department’s main area of focus is excellent teaching. Programming, databases, networking, computer architecture, cybersecurity, cloud computing, computer graphics, and many other topics are introduced to the students.

Students are also taught the value of social responsibility and professional ethics. Each curriculum is created to give students meaningful team- and individually focused creative opportunities, as well as chances to improve their oral and written communication abilities.

Additionally, students are given the chance to interact with the industry through activities including professional society involvement, student internships, cooperative education, and professional speakers.

The quest for knowledge is another component of the department. Researchers from the faculty are working on issues related to various facets of information technology. Publication in scholarly publications and attendance at national and international conferences are important components.

These initiatives give professors the chance to stay on the cutting edge in a changing environment and give them the chance to involve students in their quest for knowledge.

The department of information technology encourages diversity and accepts eligible students from a variety of backgrounds and places of origin, whether local, national, or international. The department takes great pleasure in its cultural diversity. This diversity benefits students both inside and outside of the classroom and helps them get ready for a cutthroat, international marketplace.
