Riphah School of Computing & Innovation
INTRODUCTION
Faculty of Computing is a constituent unit of Riphah International University. It is responsible for the academic quality management of all computing programs offered by Riphah. The faculty manages BS programs in the field of Software Engineering, Computer Science, Information Technology, Cybersecurity, and Computer Arts and MS programs in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Information Technology, Information Security, and Data Science at various campuses of the university. Furthermore, it also offers a Ph.D. program in Computing.
We believe that education should transfer and develop knowledge more effectively such that it aids in the economic development of the country. The new knowledge should be commercialized in the form of innovations and novel high-tech products. This is possible when there is a robust interface between the university, entrepreneurs, and small & large-scale businesses. Our academic programs provide such a platform by leveraging research and development activities. The fundamental research along with industrial collaboration promotes training and consultancy, thereby becoming a catalyst for the creation of startups and technology-led economic development. The training and consultation feed back to the academic programs in turn enriching it. This interaction between academia, research, and industry is continuous and is crucial for the development of innovative solutions. Industrial collaborations feed the academia and research with industrially relevant curriculum and case studies as a result of which academia and research help generate innovative and commercialization activities
