Course detail
program synopsis
The objectives of the Computer Science program — which is in-line with the mission of AIT, is to produce high calibre graduates in Computer Science using internationally benchmarked curriculum. As such the Program is designed to meet the IEEE stipulations and the requirements for computing degrees. The program is designed to provide students with the knowledge and associated skills in the broad field of computer science. Over the four year program a range of skills-based, generic subjects will be sustained in order to develop the student as a versatile graduate and as a ‘life-long learner’. Students on this program will acquire systems design, and communication skills and be prepared for employment in a broad spectrum of computing, or for continued study at the postgraduate level.
