Strengthening research and academics through up to date curricula, adequate infrastructure, well-qualified faculty, academic and research collaboration with other universities both within and outside the country, and arrangement of conferences, symposia, and conferences.

Collaboration with industry and market-sector. Collaboration with industry brings rich dividend and is beneficial both ways. It helps universities assess industry needs and identify gaps in industrial practices and process and industry to identify skills and knowledge to tape to improve their practices. The department will strengthen its links with industry.

Focus on local needs and problems. Use of technology pervades all aspects of our lives yet effective use of information technology still evades local businesses, organizations, and market sector. The reason for this is, organizations have rules and practices local to our society. Most of the research unfortunately targets the needs and problems of industrialized societies. The department will gear its research to local needs and problems.

Seminars, job fairs, and career-counselling provide important opportunities for students to target potential employers and employers to target potential human resource. The department will intensify job-fairs, seminars, and related activities and attract reputed firms and companies to enable contacts between students and potential employers.
