The Bachelor of Computer Science (Hons) programme harnesses the wonders of information processing, management and communication to produce graduates capable of managing data and information, analysing and designing computer systems as well as developing software for various applications and technologies.

A major highlight of the Bachelor of Computer Science (Hons) programme is our state-of-the-art curriculum that allows students to learn different facets of the industry and hands-on techniques under the supervision of experienced academics. Students will be equipped with strong theoretical knowledge and extensive laboratory practice for the technical subjects, followed by a six-month period of intensive industrial training that will give them substantial exposure of the latest techniques, software and technologies used in the IT industry.

In their final year, students will have to go through an individual project that includes problem-solving case studies. The project is an opportunity for undergraduates to apply their knowledge and skills gained throughout their duration of study as well as to prepare them for real-world scenarios.

Knowledge, skills and passion gained through this programme will produce graduates with the requisite skills for the jobs in the fields of Information Technology, Computer Science, Computer Communications and Engineering. Students undertaking this programme will have the opportunity to embrace their passion by choosing specialisation courses (elective core) either in distributed systems, database management, security, embedded systems, software engineering, cloud computing, intelligent systems, or forensic computing.

Graduates with distinctive training in any of the aforementioned specialisations are highly sought after in the industry.

Assessment

Students’ ability is gauged both through continuous assessments and a final exam at the end of each semester. The continuous assessment component comprises tests/quizzes, mid-term examination and projects/assignments which accounts for an allocation of about 40-50 marks depending on the course. The balance of the marks is allocated for the final examination.
