a) Engage in life-long learning endeavor
b) Participate in the generation of new knowledge or in research and development; and
c)Promote Christian-Augustinian values in their work and contributions to the community and national development goals.
- Apply knowledge of computing fundamentals, knowledge of a computing specialization, and mathematics, science, and domain knowledge appropriate for the computing specialization to the abstraction and conceptualization of computing models from defined problems and requirements
- Identify, analyze, formulate, research literature, and solve complex computing problems and requirements reaching substantiated conclusions using fundamental principles of mathematics, computing sciences, and relevant domain disciplines.
- Apply mathematical foundations, algorithmic principles and computer science theory in the modeling and design of computer- based systems in a way that demonstrates comprehension of the tradeoffs involved in design choices.
- Acquire knowledge and understanding of information security issues in relation to the design, development and use of information systems.
- Design and evaluate solutions for complex computing problems, and design and evaluate systems, components, or processes that meet specified needs with appropriate consideration for public health and safety, cultural, societal, and environmental considerations.
- Create, select, adapt and apply appropriate techniques, resources and modern computing tools to complex computing activities, with an understanding of the limitations to accomplish a common goal.
- Function effectively as an individual and as a member or leader in diverse teams and in multidisciplinary settings
- Communicate effectively with the computing community and with society at large about complex computing activities by being able to comprehend and write effective reports, design documentation, make effective presentations, and give and understand clear instructions.
- An ability to recognize the legal, social, ethical and professional issues involved in the utilization of computer technology and be guided by the adoption of appropriate professional, ethical and legal practices
- Recognize the need, and have the ability, to engage in independent learning for continual development as a computing professional.
- Demonstrate and apply in their professional work the fundamental Augustinian values related to it (such as concern for the common good of the society, sense of community, spirit of generous service, love for peace and order, constant pursuit of excellence, etc.
