The MSc programme offers an opportunity for recent graduates as well as working people to venture into the fast-growing and dynamic field of information technology (IT). Our MSc in IT programme is designed primarily to provide students with a systems level understanding of the breadth of topics that comprise IT and enough depth in one or more of those topics to make significant contributions to industry or academia.

The programme also takes advantage of the interdisciplinary nature of IT which indicates that the students must develop competencies in general system thinking and design as well as good understanding of a chosen application domain of interests. Students are required to take some fundamental courses in addition to the courses listed below to assist them in building up the needed math, science, and engineering skills.

Required Academic Preparation Coursework

Competence in computer programming, basic algorithms, calculus and linear algebra. Entering students should have an accredited undergraduate degree in Engineering and/or Information Technology.
