Department of Network Engineering

The Vision

NE – Network Engineering is a governmental academic department in Faculty of Computer Science at Kabul Polytechnic University. NE’s predecessor was a department called Computing Information Science (CIS) in which mostly two very general principles of computer science, namely networking and theoretical Computer Science have been covered since 2008. Since the market demands and the academia have become more professional and specific, it has been decided to develop a new curriculum concentrating more on network and telecommunication engineering. The new curriculum with more focused orientation imposed to choose the name NE to reflect curriculum contents. NE envisions to provide a standard Bachelor degree program and conduct researches in this direction. We are promising to make a global level education and research background record by graduating new generations and publishing state-of-the-art research papers in our professional career.

 

The Goal

The curriculum aimed to provide outcome based education to fulfill two key goals for NE graduates, first to educate them to gain market required skills in the area of network and communication and second to build a strong educational base for their further studies. In addition, NE’s academic members will conduct researches to build a strong career.

 

The Objectives

  1. Periodic revision of curriculum based on new market needs and technology changes.
  2. Assessing the curriculum implementation and effectiveness during its effective course of time.
  3. Assessing individual subject’s syllabuses to keep it aligned with defined goal and direction.
  4. Conducting researches and appearing in conferences to deliver our research results.
  5. Encouraging IT industries and employers to contribute in our curriculum development by creating a development and industry committee.
