Course Objectives The convergence of the two technologies of computing and telecommunications has created a window of opportunity for proactive institutions to train multi-skilled professionals with composite skills in both telecommunications and computing fields.
A detailed market study has shown that there is a great demand for these professionals in the corporate sector. Graduates of ICT diploma will add value and cut costs to employees by having a single staff who is able to seamlessly interpret between the two traditionally distinct technological areas of IT and telecommunications. Upon completion of ICT Diploma programme the graduates will be equipped with strong scientific and analytical background to be able to demonstrate high level of competence in the following areas among others;
- Information Systems Analysis and Design.
- Distributed Computing Systems.
- Data Communication System.
- Telecommunication Principles and Systems.
- Measurement and Fault Diagnosis of Telecommunication System.
