Preamble :-
The relevance of any degree rests on its potential to serve the needs of the day.
Considering the latest jobs scenario, the B.O.S. in Computer Science finds it necessary to
institute an independent B.Sc. Degree in Animation. The Bachelor of Science in Animation
will provide a strong foundation in the fundamentals of Artistic Design, Story Development,
Project Management, Digital Content Creation and Portfolio Development. This course will help
to gain skills in 3-D Modeling, Character Design, Animation and Game Content Development.
This will also help to learn how to complete a strong Portfolio of their work which will help
students to sell their skills to employers in the fast paced industry. The contents of the course are
dynamic and are based upon the industry trends.
Due to its wide use in all walks of life including industry and business, animation has
become synonymous with success and power. The college students, therefore, need to be given the
basic theoretical knowledge, required skills and an adequate training in those skills related to
animation technology so that they gradually get empowered and enter into the mainstream of the
society as confident citizens. Considering these factors, the Faculty of Science proposes starting of
a course entitled Bachelor of Science (Animation) [B. Sc. (Animation)] from the academic year
2010-11. This course may be taught in any existing College. Any college desiring to start the
course will have to follow the rules and procedure laid down by the university.
