Our high-quality programs acknowledge the increasingly important role IT plays in digital transformation, cyber security, data analytics, and the global revolution brought about by breakthroughs in general artificial intelligence.

Our research and course delivery focuses on high-demand areas – such as cyber security, software development, networking, AI, and data science. Courses offered by the IT Program are industry standard and lead to excellent career opportunities.

We are responsible for supporting and guiding students who are studying AI, cyber security, data science, IT, and information technology project management.
