Information technologies and computer-based systems of many kinds are now central to the operations of almost all organisations in business, industry and government. In recent years, they have also played an increasingly important part in people's personal lives for social and recreational purposes. The global spread of information technologies has created a world-wide need for skilled professionals to design, develop and implement computer-based systems.
The aim of this degree is give students the opportunity to explore all aspects of IT and its uses, and to produce graduates with knowledge and skills in a variety of key areas of IT and computer-based systems. The degree offers units across the complete spectrum of IT. These range from units in non-technical aspects such as the nature of information and organisational needs for IT, through the hardware, software, network and multimedia technologies which are used to satisfy these needs, to the development and management skills needed to create and implement computer-based systems. Students can choose to specialise in a particular area of IT or select from a variety of areas according to their aptitude and interests.
