  1. Introduction

The Department started in February 2002, when the Academic Board of Rivers State College of Education (RSCOE) took the decision to establish Computer Science Department, and then the Department was concerned with the issue of teaching General Studies (GS) Courses in Computer Science. Lecturers were drawn from allied Departments to start the Department. Then in 2003/2004 session, there was an advocacy for B.ED Courses in Computer Science and this was approved and further ratified by the University of Ibadan and in the 2004/2005 session because Rivers State College of Education was affiliated to University of Ibadan, the Department of Computer Science started in earnest.

  • Philosophy

The Curriculum is designed to produce Computer scientists who are knowledgeable, highly motivated and professionally sound, capable to train other people both in theory and practical of computer science. The programme is also designed to develop confidence in the Computer Scientist that will enhance their abilities to adapt to rapidly changing situations in a scientifically and technologically oriented global society.

  • Objectives

The objectives of the Course are:

  1. To produce graduates who are very conversant with theories, principles and applications of computers  Science so that they could be thoroughly resourceful, adaptive and innovative in their latter employment whether in the field of computer research in the university or teaching in schools or in the industry or on their own.
  2.  To produce competent and highly knowledgeable Computer Scientist at all levels of education.
  3. To produce graduates who will be able to undertake installations, repairs and maintenance of computer systems.
  4. To produce computer Scientist who will be able to motivate students’ interest in computer through the use of appropriate teaching strategies at all levels of education.
  5. To produce graduates who will be well equipped to proceed for higher degrees in Computer Science or Computer Education.
