The aim of this document is to provide a curriculum for a degree program that concentrates more on the scientific aspects in the field of Computing, and also to give the students a thorough understanding of the underlying concepts and principles pertaining to the areas in the field of Computer Science. By understanding these concepts, the students will have the ability to adapt to changes in what is a rapidly changing field. Significant emphasis is also placed on developing practical skills that will be applicable to working with computers in Ethiopia. In particular a number of courses dealing with developing skills applicable to working with emerging technologies related to the Internet; although Internet use is comparatively less in Ethiopia at the moment this situation will undoubtedly change in the future.Educational aims of a computer science program<\/p>\n
