Brief History

The department of Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) started its

journey as the department of Computer Science and Information
Technology (CIT) in 1998. It has always proactively responded to the
ever changing technological market demand. At beginning, the course
curriculums were organized to include more Information Systems and
database courses. The department soon included web based application
development courses to meet the demand of the Internet age. When the
telecommunication industry was booming and demanded human
resources skilled in mobile and telecommunications and it responded to
the trend. However, it was felt that solutions involving hardware and
software are the key to drive the market which was established by the
technology giants. Hence the department was transformed as Computer
Science and Engineering (CSE) in 2013 to emphasize on engineering
aspects of computing.

The product based technology industry are bringing new solutions

involving hardware and software; however the domination in the market
share mostly depends on the strength of the ported software and its ability
to connect with the other solutions. Therefore, the need for software
engineers is ever growing. To produce good software engineers, the
department of CSE has started a separate bachelor programme namely
B.Sc. in Software Engineering from 2017. Software are shipped to many
different platforms: computers, mobile, web, manufacturing devices,
avionics, medical devices and everywhere. The requirements, design,
architecture and technologies are so diverse that a bunch of new courses
are included in the syllabus of software engineering bachelor’s
curriculum.
5 General Information

Currently, the department has 35 full-time faculty members along with 8

part-time faculty members from other reputed universities. In addition to
this, 18 faculty members are on leave for higher education in abroad.
There are about more than 520 undergraduate and more than 30 graduate
students in the department.

Vision and Mission of the CSE Department

Vision

To be an outstanding provider of future leaders and workforce in

Computer Science and Software Engineering.

Mission

The missions of the CSE department are:

• To impart quality education in the undergraduate and post

graduate levels.

• To provide balanced curriculum that focuses on theory and

application of computer science and software engineering to the
dynamically changing technological world.

• To excel in research and innovation integrating the faculty

knowledge and student skills.

Bachelor of Science in Computer Science and Engineering
(B.Sc. in CSE)

The Bachelor of Science in Computer Science and Engineering (BSc. in

CSE) is the preferred degree both for graduate study in computer science
and for technical careers in software development. Our curricula, faculty
and research areas focus on an array of topics including network and
communications, algorithms and complexity, artificial intelligence and
machine learning, bioinformatics, computer architecture and design,
databases and data mining, privacy and cryptography, and human
computer interaction. Students majoring in CSE should have shown
considerable ability in mathematics and logical reasoning. In view of
that, a number of courses on Mathematics and Basic Science have been
included in the syllabus. In addition, some social science, management,
accounting, economics, and communication-skills development related
courses have been incorporated to make the syllabus a balanced and
reasonably complete one. The objective of this undergraduate
programme in Computer Science and Engineering is to develop skilled
and competent graduates to meet the current and future needs at home
and abroad. To achieve that goal, our students, faculty and staff are
continuing to work together to build an even stronger department. To
benefit from academics, students must live in an open, accepting, and
compassionate community that encourages the exploration of ideas. We
are a department that prides itself as a home for high quality education
and research, and, as always, a home for our students and alumni.
9 General Information

Assessment and Grading Systems

Distribution of Marks

The performance of a student in a course is evaluated based on a scheme

of continuous assessment, mid-term and semester final examinations. For
theory courses, this continuous assessment is made through a set of
quizzes, class participation, and assignment. The assessment in
laboratory/sessional courses is made through observation of the students
and viva-voce during laboratory hours, and quizzes. The distribution of
marks in the continuous assessment, mid-term and semester-final
examinations is as follows.

Class participation 10%

Quizzes and assignments 15%
Mid-term 25%
Semester final 50%

Letter Grades

Letter grades and corresponding grade points are awarded in accordance

with the provisions shown below.
Equivalent
Grade Numerical Markings
Grade Point
A+ 4.00 80% and above
A 3.75 75% to below 80%
A- 3.50 70% to below 75%
B+ 3.25 65% to below 70%
B 3.00 60% to below 65%
B- 2.75 55% to below 60%
C+ 2.50 50% to below 55%
C 2.25 45% to below 50%
D 2.00 40% to below 45%
F 0.00 below 40%
13 General Information

Assignment of Credits
Each theory or lab course is assigned a weekly contact hours. The credit
hours a course is directly related to the weekly contact hours of the
course. The credit hours of a theory course is equal to the weekly contact
hour of the course, the credit hours of a lab course is half of the weekly
contact hours of the course. One contact hour refers to a 50 minute class
in each week of a semester.

Grade Point Average

The overall academic progress of a student in a semester is assessed by

calculating grade point average (GPA). The grade points obtained by a
student in a course is the product of the credit hours of the course and the
equivalent grade point corresponding to the letter grade obtained by the
student in that course. Grade Point Average (GPA) is the weighted
average of the grade points obtained in all the courses passed/completed
by a student.

Where,
n = Number of courses offered in a semester

GPi = Grade Point obtained in the ith course

Attendance Requirement

A student is required to attend at least 85% of the classes held in each

course of a semester. The students failing to attend the requisite
percentage of classes in any course will not be allowed to appear at the
Semester Final Examinations in the semester. In special circumstances,
the Vice-Chancellor on the recommendation of the Head of the
Department may condone 10% of the required attendance on grounds of
serious illness of the student on production of certificate by a Registered
Physician, or reasons acceptable to the Vice-Chancellor.

CSE 4845 Introduction to Information Retrieval Credit 3.0

Introduction: basic structure and major topics of this course, and go over
some logistic issues and course requirements
Search engine architecture: basic building blocks of a modern search engine
system, including web crawler, basic text analysis techniques, inverted
index, query processing, search result interface.
Retrieval models: Retrieval model, a.k.a., ranking algorithm, is arguably the
most important component of a retrieval system, and it directly determines
search effectiveness. We will discuss classical retrieval models, including
Boolean, vector space, probabilistic and language models. We will also
introduce the most recent development of learning-based ranking
algorithms, i.e., learning-to-rank.
Retrieval evaluation: Assessing the quality of deployed system is essential
for retrieval system development. Many different measures for evaluating
the performance of information retrieval systems have been proposed. We
will discuss both the classical evaluation metrics, e.g., Mean Average
Precision, and modern advance, e.g., interleaving.
Relevance feedback: User feedback is important for retrieval systems to
evaluate the performance and improve the effectiveness of their service
strategies. However, in most practical system, only implicit feedback can be
collected from users, e.g., clicks, which are known to be noisy and biased.
We will discuss how to properly model implicit user feedback, and enhance
retrieval performance via such feedback.
Link analysis: We will discuss the unique characteristic of web: inter-
connection, and introduce Google’s winning algorithm PageRank. We will
also introduce the application of link analysis techniques in a similar
domain: social network analysis.
Search applications: We will introduce modern applications in search
systems, including recommendation, personalization, and online
advertising, if time allows.
