Overview of Bsc hons in information technology with a specialism in mobile technology in Asia Pacific University of Technology & Innovation Malaysia

This programme is specifically designed to provide students with:

• Familiarity with a broad range of information technologies and how they are used.
• The ability to specify and manage the implementation of a range of mobile communications systems to support various activities.
• The ability to design, develop, and implement viable mobile technology solutions using appropriate platforms, tools, and techniques.

PROGRAMME STRUCTURE

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 security and computer forensics. The modules will also help them develop personal and organisational skills, as well as nurture creativity and innovation.

A broader range of skills will be learnt, in which students will gain a better understanding of the platforms, tool and techniques needed to design, develop and implement viable mobile technology solutions. They will gain solid understanding of mobile and wireless technologies and mobile app development. We will further nurture their creativity and innovation as well as independent learning to prepare them for the workplace.

Students will undertake an Internship/Industrial Training for a minimum period of 16 weeks to prepare them for a smooth transition from the classroom to the working environment.

Students will make use of their previous studies and industrial experience to extend their familiarity in the field of mobile computing and to refine their personal and professional development. Students will move further into advanced programming skills for full range of mobile computing applications such as games, multimedia and enterprise-level mobile applications. A final year project requires them to investigate and develop a solution for a real-world problem – they will demonstrate their ability to combine technical knowledge, critical thinking and analytical skills to produce a personal achievement portfolio.

Note: The specialism will appear only in the academic transcript.
