PROGRAMME OUTLINE
This programme is specifically designed to provide students with:
- The knowledge to design, engineer, and develop IoT- based solutions using various platforms in a broader and vendor neutral perspective.
- An understanding of important insights on sensor devices, internet based technologies, wireless communications, and cloud computing.
Students will learn fundamental skills required by every IT professional, and the basic understanding of the underlying computer system through Computer Architecture, operating systems, networking and databases. Some specialised modules will provide them basic knowledge of programming and Internet of Things (IoT). The modules will also help them develop personal and organisational skills, as well as nurture creativity and innovation.

Students will undertake an Internship/Industrial Training for a minimum period of 16 weeks to prepare them for a smooth transition from the classroom to the working environment.
Students will make use of their previous studies and industrial experience to extend their familiarity in the field of Internet of Things (IoT) and to refine their personal and professional development. Students will move further into the frameworks and planning techniques for strategic management of cloud-based IoT systems in organisations. A final year project requires them to investigate and develop a solution for a real-world problem – they will demonstrate their ability to combine technical knowledge, critical thinking and analytical skills to produce a personal achievement portfolio.
