later after the establishment of seven departments.
The major academic departments are:
Information and Communication Technology Department (JTMK)

Civil Engineering Department (JKA)
Electrical Engineering Department (JKE)
Mechanical Engineering Department (JKM)
Commerce Department (JP)
Two supporting departments are;

General Studies Department (JPA)
Mathematics, Science and Computer Department (JMSK)
In order to promote lifelong learning, a number of short courses are offered to public
and local communities under Time Sector Privatization (TSP) besides full-time
