Course Overview

DEGREE LEVEL 1

Students will learn fundamental skills required by every IT professional, and the basic understanding of artificial intelligence techniques and algorithmnic thinking. Some specialised modules will provide them basic knowledge of underlying computer systems such as Computer Architecture, operating systems, networks and databases. The modules will also help them develop personal and organisational skills, as well as nurture creativity and innovation.

COMMON MODULES
  • Introduction to Networking
  • Systems Software and Computing Concepts
  • Introduction to Databases
  • Python Programming
  • Systems Analysis and Design
  • Integrated Computer Systems
  • Fundamental of Entrepreneurship
  • Digital Thinking and Innovation
  • Mathematical Concepts for Computing
  • Introduction to Artificial Intelligence
  • Introduction to Object Oriented Programming

DEGREE LEVEL 2

A broader range of skills will be learnt, in which the students will gain a better understanding of artificial intelligence techniques such as machine learning, fuzzy logic, and natural language processing. They will gain solid understanding of techniques used to develop complex software systems that include data acquisitions via various sensors. We will further nurture their creativity and innovation as well as independent learning to prepare them for the workplace.
