What you will learn in a glance?

In the first year, students will learn fundamental skills required by IT professionals. They will develop a basic understanding of programming, mathematical concepts, and algorithmic skills. Specialized modules will provide them with basic knowledge of underlying computer systems such as computer architecture, operating systems, networking, and databases. The curriculum will also focus on developing personal and organizational skills, as well as nurturing creativity and innovation. By the end of this level, students will have a strong foundation in programming, mathematics, algorithms, and a basic understanding of computer systems.

Moving into the second year, students will acquire a broader range of skills in computer science. They will gain a better understanding of designing and implementing new software and solving computing problems through theoretical and algorithmic foundations. The curriculum will cover platform technologies, data analytics, application development, and knowledge discovery techniques. This level aims to provide students with a solid understanding of platform technology and the ability to analyze data. Creativity, innovation, and independent learning will continue to be nurtured to prepare students for the workplace. By the end of this level, students will have developed expertise in software design, problem-solving, platform technologies, data analytics, and application development.

During the 16-week internship or industrial training, students will acquire a broader range of skills in computer science. They will gain a better understanding of designing and implementing new software and solving computing problems through theoretical and algorithmic foundations. The curriculum will cover platform technologies, data analytics, application development, and knowledge discovery techniques. This level aims to provide students with a solid understanding of platform technology and the ability to analyze data. Creativity, innovation, and independent learning will continue to be nurtured to prepare students for the workplace. By the end of this level, students will have developed expertise in software design, problem-solving, platform technologies, data analytics, and application development.

In the third year, students will builds upon the foundation of previous studies and industrial experience. Students will further extend their familiarity with computer science and refine their personal and professional development. This level places a strong focus on advanced analytics through business analytics and intelligence modules. Students will gain expertise in analyzing and interpreting data to derive meaningful insights for decision-making. The final year project will require students to investigate and develop a solution for a real-world problem, demonstrating their ability to combine technical knowledge, critical thinking, and analytical skills. This project will result in the creation of a personal achievement portfolio. By the end of this level, students will have advanced their expertise in computer science, specialized in advanced analytics, and demonstrated their abilities to solve complex real-world problems.
