The Faculty of Information Technology Engineering of Damascus University (FITE), is one of the newest faculties at the University of Damascus. It was established under the decree No. 15 of 2000
Name of the Field
════════════════════════════════════════════════
The term "Information Technology Engineering" matches with the term "Computer Science" in American and British universities
This depart
ment is concerned with the ways that can exploit Information and Communication Technologies and use them to analyze and solve scientific problems, unlike other departments such as Computer Engineering or Communication Engineering, which are concerned with Information and Communication Technologies constructing
A folkloric quotation, attributed to the computer scientist Edsger Dijkstra, states that "computer science is no more about computers than astronomy is about telescopes." Academic Degrees Awarded
════════════════════════════════════════════════
The University of Damascus, at the proposal of the Faculty of Information Technology Engineering, awards Bachelor's, Master's, and Doctoral Degrees in the following majors
* Artificial Intelligence and Natural Language Processing
* Software Engineering and Information Systems
* Computer Systems and Networks
The student is awarded Bachelor's Degree after successfully completing 5 years of study (ten semesters of study) and Master's Degree after an extra four semesters
