Having worked in the IT and education industry for many years, with the opportunity to analyse the programme, the opportunity is an immense privilege. This course consists of systems, programming and systems with design, user interface, security, analytics, and soft skill.
The course structure describes computer systems such as Operating Systems, Computer Networks & Internet Systems and Database Systems. At the same time, it helps students to enhance their cognitive skills in developing a system using programming languages, such as Structure programming, Object-oriented programming and Web design programming with a systematic and structured design development cycle like Agile Development methodology. Besides that, User Interface Design is one of the key points in assisting students in developing user graphical interface.
Security is one of the topic concerns by public to secure our asset and property. Nowadays, high mobility computers in the living environment and the working place that can connect to a heterogeneous network, such as cellular systems, Wi-Fi, and WiMax, to Internet has become a common implementation.

In order to filter these huge amounts of data and information, analytical tools are necessary. The course introduces logical data tools as well as information tools which can educate the students on knowing the fact and truth in a brief manner. The skills and knowledge can be learnt through the Data and Web Analytics courses.
The students can also acquire the knowledge of computer and network systems and describe software development cycle in terms of Agile Software Development. Network security detection and prevention can be part of the knowledge and skills that the students can learn. Furthermore, the students will be taught the importance of being a team player.
Apart from the IT skills and knowledge learnt, it is essential for everyone looking to enhance their career development to learn the intra-personal and inter-personal skillset, hopefully, could secure in a working place and live better in living environment.
