As from October, the new Faculty of ICT, which is responsible for the areas of Informatics, Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, Communications and Computer Engineering and of Microelectronics and Nanoelectronics is launching a new three-year B.Sc. (Hons) ICT degree with a number of areas of study that will replace the current four-year B.Sc. IT (Hons) course.
The new degree programme aims to produce graduates fit to occupy responsible positions in the ICT industry according to the area within ICT that they choose to focus upon during the course.
The faculty is also running a part-time evening degree course leading to a B.Sc. (Hons.) in Information and Communication Technology. This course is chiefly aimed at those who are already working. There is also a conversion Masters course, MIT, for graduates in areas other than ICT. This course is aimed at giving graduates in other fields a chance to migrate towards the world of ICT. Shortly, the Faculty will also be announcing M.Sc. course programmes in the areas of Computer Science, Communications and Signal Processing, Informatics and VLSI.
The University is organising a presentation on the new degree programmes offered by the Faculty of Information and Communication Technology for all interested students on Wednesday from 6.30 p.m. to 8.30 p.m., at the Atriju Vassalli, on campus.
