Faculty of Computer Science and

Information Technology

Dear Students! Welcome to the HEIK Faculty of Computer Sciences and Information Technology. The subject of computer science & information technology has gained unprecedented importance and has significantly affected every sector of human activity. The Govt. of Afghanistan, realizing its importance in our present and future socio-economic life, has evolved an IT policy and action plan. This provides for development of human resources, infrastructure, software and hardware industry, and the undertaking of a massive IT promotion and awareness campaign. Thus, a large pool of academically and technically skilled IT manpower must be developed to meet the national requirements. This will provide many opportunities, as well as challenges, for those who graduate and specialize in information and communication technology.

Now as the current world is considered a global village, due to the rapid flow of information from one place to another, the person who can share and access this information, is considered a part of the global village. The astronomical growth in computing compels the whole professional world to re-orientate their efforts to maximize the utilization of computing in their professional activities. This enables the Faculty of Computer Science & Information Technology at HEIK, which is primarily responsible for training programmers to take the lead in the utilization of computing in different spheres of life. There is a tremendous challenge faceing Afghanistan to create well-equipped computing professionals who have the ability to expertise to respond adequately to growing needs of the industry.

We therefore recommend you to come and visit us to see how we train our graduates at HEIK!
