PROGRAMME STRUCTURE

DEGREE LEVEL 1

Students will learn fundamental skills required by every IT professional, and the basic understanding of the underlying computer system through Computer Architecture, operating systems, networking and databases. Some specialised modules will provide them basic knowledge of programming and Internet of Things (IoT). The modules will also help them develop personal and organisational skills, as well as nurture creativity and innovation.

Common Modules	Specialised Modules
Digital Thinking and Innovation Introduction to Management System Analysis & Design Programming with Python Mathematical Concepts for Computing Operating Systems & Computer Architecture Introduction to Networking Introduction to Databases Introduction to C Programming	Introduction to IoT

DEGREE LEVEL 2

A broader range of skills will be learnt, in which students will gain better understanding of the broad range of Internet of Things technologies, which include networking, systems programming and security. They will gain solid understanding of IoT as an enabler for an organisation. We will further nurture their creativity and innovation as well as independent learning to prepare them for the workplace.
