About the Programme

M.Sc. in Information Technology is a one-year post-graduate programme dedicated to providing knowledge of programming, implementation of common data structures using OOP principles in C++ and ADTs. It covers in-depth analysis of Lists, Stacks, Queues, Trees, and Graphs. Students are introduced to various aspects of information technology including software development, data manipulation, and technology re-engineering.    

This programme is designed to help students explore different types of technology applications and the way in which information is created exchanged and stored. Students may learn how to write code and can explore areas such as information security software applications system design and databases.  
The programme offers a broad technical understanding of current and evolving technologies in the IT field. The emphasis of the programme is moving technology from the laboratory to the realm of business development.
