International Diploma in
Information Technology & Communication
 
About the Programme

The course has been developed to meet the professional and academic needs of graduates of the International Diploma in Information Technology & Communications in order that they may function effectively in the development and maintenance of computer systems. It is a general diploma programme for students to progress into the Advanced Diploma in IT/Computing/Networking or other related areas and subsequently into degree programs.

This reflects the continuing need for academic development of human capital in the Far East as well as world-wide generally. The International Diploma in Information Technology & Communications coupled with Advanced Diploma progression will provide students with strong academic knowledge in the various areas of Information Technology, Programming and Systems Development, Networking & Cyber security, or Mobile Application Technology – depending on their choice of specialization.
