 Preamble
The objective of any programme at Higher Education Institute is to prepare their students for the
society at large. The University of Delhi envisions all its programmes in the best interest of their
students and in this endeavour it offers a new vision to all its Under-Graduate courses. It imbibes a
Learning Outcome-based Curriculum Framework (LOCF) for all its Under Graduate programmes.

The LOCF approach is envisioned to provide a focused, outcome-based syllabus at the

undergraduate level with an agenda to structure the teaching-learning experiences in a more student-
centric manner. The LOCF approach has been adopted to strengthen students’ experiences as they
engage themselves in the programme of their choice. The Under-Graduate Programmes will prepare
the students for both, academia and employability.

Each programme vividly elaborates its nature and promises the outcomes that are to be
accomplished by studying the courses. The programmes also state the attributes that it offers to
inculcate at the graduation level. The graduate attributes encompass values related to well-being,
emotional stability, critical thinking, social justice and also skills for employability. In short, each
programme prepares students for sustainability and life-long learning.

The new curriculum of Discipline Course in Computer Applications is designed to introduce

computational methods to BA program students. The course promotes computer literacy and
programming skills so that the students can make effective use of computer technology in their
courses of study. The program also builds some basic skills for entry level jobs in information
technology.

The University of Delhi hopes the LOCF approach of the programme Discipline Course in
Computer Applications will help students in making an informed decision regarding the goals that
they wish to pursue in further education and life, at large.

1.Introduction to Discipline Course in Computer Applications
Discipline course in Computer Application is offered to BA programme students in several
prestigious colleges of the University of Delhi. This course aims to introduce the discipline of
Computer Applications to the students who wish to either take up entry level jobs in small scale
computer industry or use computer technology in study of Humanities. The courses are designed to
promote computer literacy, and use and appreciate computer technology in day-to-day life.
Inclusion of programming courses promotes logical and analytical thinking.

The curriculum for Computer Application courses in BA programme was developed by the
Department of Computer Science by following the due diligent process. Close consultations were
held with the college teachers involved in teaching of the courses. Inputs were collected from the
college teachers in general body meetings and the courses were decided. Subsequently, committees
were formed for designing syllabi for each course. Draft syllabus of each course was thoroughly
discussed and debated among the peers in DU colleges. After multiple iterations, the final syllabus
of the programme was approved in the Committee of Courses for Undergraduate Studies. The draft
was then published in public domain for review by all stakeholders, and additionally sent for peer
review outside University of Delhi. The review comments were thoroughly discussed in the
Committee of Courses for Undergraduate Studies, and the appropriate changes were incorporated.
Finally, the syllabus was placed in the Faculty of Mathematical Sciences and approved.
