degree in Computer Engineering study programme.
This degree has been given the EURO-INF seal, the international engineering accreditation granted by the EQANIE.
The main aim of this programme is to train qualified professionals in the entire range of computing. Graduates from the programme will come out with knowledge on how to design and handle hardware, and how to design and develop computer networks. They will also be able to design and develop software applications of any kind, both local and for the www, all in an effective manner and at with top quality levels. Students will also be able to undertake management and supervisory tasks on projects, and effectively manage and distribute human and IT resources at any organisation. Furthermore, students will also attain knowledge on the most applied aspects to IT, such as games and data representation (sound and video). All of this will be in line with the regulatory framework, quality levels, and legal and ethical concerns they need to demonstrate in their work as graduates in computer sciences.
This programme offers four pathways each made up of eight subjects. In order to attain the Degree in Computer Sciences, students must take all of the subjects on one of the pathways. They may specialise and obtain, depending on their chosen pathway, one of the following majors: Computer Engineering, Computation, Information Technologies, or Information Systems.
