Welcome to the Computer Science Department at Al-Balqa Applied University. The Department of Computer Science (CS) was established in 2003 under the faculty of Prince Abdullah Bin Ghazi of science and information technology. In 2011, the CS department became under the faculty of Prince Abdullah Bin Ghazi of information technology. The Department of Computer Science offers the Bachelor degree in Computer Science, and a Master’s program in Computer Science that was established in 2004
The Department of Computer Science is continuously trying to update and introduce computer science courses in order to be able to meet international standards. For this reason, in 2011/2012, the curriculum has been modified for the Bachelor and the Master's degrees, in 2015/2016 the curriculum has also been modified for the Bachelor degree in order to meet the developments in the field.
The Department of Computer Science has a large number of novel computing laboratories. These laboratories are equipped with more than 150 machines that are used to teach the practical courses, serves graduate students, and research. Our mission in the Department of Computer Science is to provide a high quality graduates and to provide them with the necessary skills and techniques that qualify them to be competitive in the market.
