PROGRAMME OUTLINE
This programme is specifically designed to provide students with:
- Familiarity with a broad range of
information technologies and how they are used.
- An understanding of frameworks and planning
techniques for the strategic management of information systems in
organisations.
- The ability to critically evaluate and
apply appropriate strategies and techniques to the development of
information technologies.
- The ability to develop technical knowledge, skills and background in the design and organisation of computer systems focusing on cyber security.
- The ability to critically evaluate design paradigms, languages, algorithms, and techniques used to develop complex software systems related to cyber security.
- The ability to evaluate and respond to opportunities for developing and exploiting new technologies and applications in cyber security.
Students will learn fundamental skills required by every IT professional, and the basic understanding of programming, mathematical and algorithmic skills. A sound grasp of mathematical techniques and skills in algorithmic thinking are important pre-requisites for their second and third year studies in this area. Computer Architecture, operating systems, networks, databases, security and forensic technologies are the underlying platforms in cyber security. Introduction to management introduces the third key area, understanding personal and organisational development, along with independent learning and team working skills..
