The Department of Computer Applications at Government Degree College (GDC), Uri, is indeed one of the youngest departments, established to offer undergraduate courses in Computer Science and Applications. Despite being relatively new, it has grown significantly and now has two faculty members and over 100 students.

The department is well-equipped with two fully air-conditioned computer laboratories housing 50 systems, ensuring state-of-the-art computing facilities with sufficient power supply backup. It also manages the software and hardware requirements of the entire college.

Students are encouraged to innovate and strengthen their core knowledge in computer science. They gain exposure to the latest technologies through workshops and guest lectures and receive training in web technologies like HTML, CSS, JavaScript, PHP, and MySQL, which they apply in designing and maintaining the college website and feedback portal.

The department collaborates with various other subjects, including Mathematics, Physics, Statistics, Chemistry, Zoology, Botany, Psychology, Education, and Economics, fostering a multidisciplinary approach to education.
