The department of Information Systems Engineering of the Faculty of Informatics and Telecommunications offers this programme that leads to the award of BSc Degree.
Aim
This programme aims to produce competent, creative and flexible engineers with skills that will allow them to contribute to the design of the next generation of information systems.
Objectives
The objectives of this programme are:
- to enable students to learn the theory and practice of hardware and software engineering design and to provide them with the skills to implement software solutions.
- to provide students with the required backgound that would enable them to benefit from choosing, in the latter part of the programme, specialised modules in their area of interest (a choice between Software engineering and Communications & signal engineering).
- to enable students to learn individual and group project work concentrating on real-life problems.
- to prepare degree graduates to join the work force as professionals in a wide range of related fields including telecommunications, signal processing engineering and information technology.
- to prepare degree graduates to pursue further postgraduate studies in their chosen field.
Course Duration
The duration of the programme is eight semesters of full-time study and leads to the BSc(Hons) Degree in Information Systems Engineering.
The programme of studies is based on European credit units (ECTS). ECTS is based on the principle that 60 credits approximately measure the workload of a full-time student during one academic year.
Graduation Requirements
Students studying towards the BSc Honours in Information Systems Engineering are required to take a minimum of 240 ECTS . One-hundred and fourty (140) come from core subjects, fifty(50) come from Core specialization subjects, either Software Engineering or Communications and Signal Processing, and fifty (50) from Electives.
Honours Degree
On graduation, each candidate should have:
- completed successfully all the prescribed course work of the examination syllabus.
- achieved the required minimum number of ECTS of prescribed coursework and laboratory work by completing successfully all core and elective subjects, as required by the programme of studies.
- achieved a minimum of 240 ECTS and secured a Grade Point Average (GPA) of at least 2.00.
A candidate that has fulfilled the requirements of the prescribed scheme of study and has satisfied the examiners will be eligible for the conferment of a Bachelors Degree with Honours in one of the following classes on the basis of his/her Grade Point Average (GPA)*
