Tribhuvan University, Institute of Science and Technology has recently introduced a 4-year semester program, Bachelors of Science in Computer Science and Information Technology (B.Sc.CSIT). The course designed by the department for this program is highly acceptable and demanding to the nation and the IT industries. The department has been responsible to conduct entrance examination of Bachelor's of Computer Science and Information Technology (B.Sc.CSIT) since the year. B.Sc.CSIT is four year eight semester program offered by Tribhuvan University for the first time in Nepal.

Objectives of B.Sc.CSIT
  • To offer intensive knowledge in the theory, design, programming and application of computers.
  • To provide necessary knowledge in the field of functional knowledge of hardware system and necessary knowledge of computer software system.

Background
As a developing country, Nepal has availed of the opportunity to rapidly develop various sectors such as education, health, agriculture, tourism, trade, among others, using information technology.
IT technology means the technology which provides information about the concerned things. In this new generation IT plays a very important role in each and every country. Its full form is INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY. For the development of country IT technology is very important and it is the reason behind it. So, country like America, Japan, and China etc. are the example that is able to develop with the help of this technology. Mainly due to the IT technology, between many countries there is being competition for the development of their own. From this statement we can know that, it is very helpful mainly for the under developed country.
By the help of this technology country can introduced and can discovered many things. IT policy has much importance on various countries and its different sectors. Likewise, IT policy is important because IT plays a vital role to build up knowledge based society and boost up the economic condition of any country. For example we can take importance of IT policy in Nepal. Such as, IT policy is needed for Nepal to provide the general people access to IT to make knowledge based society to established knowledge based industry and to change the economic conditions of people.

By this IT, there are many merits which we can take the benefit from it such as, Promotion of e-commerce, Human resources development, Dissemination of IT and other related facilities from these all concept we directly understood that IT policy is very important and necessary for each and every country to be forward into new and advanced technology.

Government policy
The IT policy, Nepal was adopted in 2002 AD. (2057 B.S) to define the vision, background, objectives and strategies of computer education in Nepal. The main vision of IT policy of Nepal 2002 A.D. is to "Place Nepal on the global map of information Technology”. IT policy helps to make information technology accessible to the general public and increase employment through this means. Not only this, it helps to build knowledge based society too.
IT policy may be reviewed and modified every two years in conformity with technological development and expansion services as a result of rapid development in the information technology sector.










                                         Environmental Threats
Political
Main threat of the students of B.SC CSIT is the present political situation of Nepal. Due to the unstable government, this four year course might not get accomplish in time. Also due to political situation, there is no investments and new industries.
Environment
There are problems of unemployment, low income, low economy, low GDP and vicious circle of poverty which raises frustration.
Social
In this 21st century, our society is still backward. Our religion and culture does not give us to think broadly and apply it. We have to think before our plans come to action. The type of education we want to gain solely depends on our family size, income and their education.
Technological
As the information technology field is a fast-growing sector in terms of career with society becoming more reliant on technology. Information technology is rapidly being applied in almost every sector. These sectors, however, continue to face multiple challenges such as the need to respond quickly to changes in technology and demand. Also there are many foreign degree holders in the market. And we lack in technology and resources required for development.










                                               Opportunities
Political
The political problems can be solved by convincing the political leaders because they are easy to convince and easy loving. Many opportunities can be extracted from government if we are able to provide networking and data recording services to governmental offices.

Environment
We can easily create new opportunities if we are able to create and bring technology to provide treatment to need and necessity of people.
Employment creation is done if we solve new needs of the generation.

Education
The information technology field is a fast-growing sector in terms of career with society becoming more reliant on technology, more people are needed to create the software and hardware for the same. And the demand for IT professionals is high in the market and so is the scope of IT professionals as the subject is practical and it is easy for students to get a job by the time they complete their studies.
The potential contribution of information technology to employment generation is both direct and indirect. Directly, the growth of the computer hardware and software industries are generating new job opportunities. Indirectly, the adoption of computer technology by other industries expands the range of services they provide and can stimulate more rapid growth of these sectors. The indirect impact of IT is far larger than the direct impact. In the USA, it is estimated that for every direct job created in the IT industry, a minimum of ten additional IT-related jobs have been created in other industries in which IT is applied. This does not include the non-IT jobs created by the growth of other sectors of the economy under the stimulus of information technology.
IT is both a labor-creating and labor-saving technology. As the introduction of automated machines replaced manual labor in factories and on fields, it was once believed that the spread of computer technology would result in massive job destruction. However, two decades of experience has demonstrated that the reverse is actually the case. Surely specific types of jobs are eliminated, but overall computerization creates far more jobs than it destroys. The spread of computerization acts as a catalyst for the growth of many types of businesses. This is not only true of businesses directly related to the computer industry, such as research and development, computer education, computer repair and maintenance. In fact, every sector of the economy is being energized by the adaptation of computer technology. The fastest growing sectors of the global service economy—education, financial services, insurance and health services—have all expanded by adapting IT technologies. IT has demonstrable benefits for employment and skill levels. Evidence indicates that IT contributes to growth in demand for labor, as well as an overall skill upgrading in the workplace.
Technology
In present, IT is fastest growing and developing sector so to cope up with the present world one has to be faster than the development that occurs and should possess all the qualification required by consulting foreign universities and have to be up to date.

Conclusion
B.Sc.CSIT is a complete package for a student to be a good IT professional as it contains every necessary course elements. So, this course is going to create a lots of direct and indirect employment opportunities for a B.Sc.CSIT student after their graduation. Along with life changing opportunities there are many threats for an IT technician. With the pace of development of IT sector one has to be fast enough to compete with the changing world around them.
