This computer science degree has an emphasis on cybersecurity. It joins a computing foundation with specialised knowledge of building and analysing secure systems and networks.
Students cover programming, software development, algorithms, data structures and operating systems, then specialised courses on protecting systems. The programme stresses solving problems, thinking critically and communicating technical matters, so graduates can safeguard digital systems and data in different industries. The degree totals 120 credits.
The degree takes about 8 semesters, which is 4 years. A regular semester carries 12 to 15 credits and a summer semester carries 6. A placement of 6 to 12 weeks is compulsory. Applicants need a recognised general education diploma or an equivalent qualification. New students sit an English placement test, and a valid IELTS score of 5.5 or higher, or an internet-based TOEFL result between 65 and 79, spares them the first part of that test. Mathematics and IT placement tests then set their starting level.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: A recognised general education diploma or its equivalent. All entrants take an English placement test; a valid IELTS score of 5.5 or above, or an internet-based TOEFL score of 65 to 79, exempts them from the first part and leaves only the writing test. Mathematics and IT placement tests determine each student's level in those subjects or allow exemption.
