Computer Science Department

The Computer Science Department was established in 1991 to provide highly-qualified, locally and internationally competitive IT personnel, as well as prepare students for continuing postgraduate studies.

Since its establishment, the department has been developing study plans in line with the rapid developments in the field of information technology. The Computer Science department at PSUT aims, therefore, to provide world-class programs that are flexible and up-to-date, within a stable, supportive learning environment. We strive to produce graduates that will be able to compete successfully for work anywhere in the world.

In the summer of 2013, the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) granted accreditation to the BSc. program in Computer Science, among other programs. As a result, PSUT is the first university in Jordan to offer an ABET-accredited program in this specialization, which continues to be considered among the best programs in the region and the world. ABET accreditation is considered a great milestone for PSUT, bringing with it great prestige to the university, its teaching faculty members, and its students. The university has achieved worldwide recognition and is cited on the ABET official website among a list of elite higher education institutions in the world that offer ABET-accredited programs.
