Overview

ADP Computer Science is the University of Education, Lahore’s two-year Associate Degree in computing: programming fundamentals, object-oriented programming, data structures, databases, web technologies and computer networks, taught in the college’s computer laboratories.

It is the fastest route to a recognised computing qualification after Intermediate — two years to a degree that employers and universities accept — and it keeps the door open: ADP graduates enter the fifth semester of BS Computer Science and finish a full four-year BS in two more years.

Students sit University of Education examinations each semester; the college follows up every result, transcript and degree until it is delivered.

Who this suits. Students who want a computing qualification in two years, who need to work sooner, or who want to decide about a full BS after seeing how the first two years go.
