Academic Departments

    • Department of Information Communication Technology
    • Department of Computer Science

Academic Programmes The programmes currently being pursued are:

Aims

    • To provide students with a thorough grounding in the theoretical and practical aspects of the computer science discipline necessary for successful careers as system designers in the continually developing information technology environment.
    • To provide students with a balance of knowledge and skills to design and implement software, as well as hardware systems to a professional standard.
    • To equip students to adapt to the changes and challenges that working with cutting-edge technology brings.
    • To encourage world-leading research in terms of originality, significance, and rigour.
    • To prepare students for the social, organizational, and professional context in which they will be working

Objectives

    • To provide students with the educational experiences that will enable them to cope with the rapidly changing subject of Computer Science;
    • To provide students with a sufficiently broad range of courses to enable them to be successful in postgraduate programmes anywhere in the world;
    • To equip students to effectively utilize their knowledge of computing principles and mathematical theory to develop sustainable solutions to current and future computing problems;
    • To train graduates to exhibit their computing expertise within the computing community through corporate leadership, entrepreneurship, and advanced graduate study.
    • To provide students with the skills to effectively develop and implement solution-based systems and processes that address issues and improve existing systems within a computing-based industry.

Aims:

The aim of the first degree, as structured, are consistent with the basic objectives of the university. The aims are:

    • To help students develop self-confidence, ability to innovate habits of honest scholarship and constructive and development-oriented approach to problem-solving.
    • To equip the students with specialized ICT solution knowledge and skills needed for the pursuit of careers in different sectors of the economy.
    • To help give the student a liberal educational foundation that should enable him/her to have a feeling and an understanding of different modes of intellectual thought and as they relate to various processes of living.
