Computer science is a rapidly growing field and is, de facto, an essential component of the Information Communications Technology (ICT) sector.
Computer Science is the science, theory and practice of computational applications. Computer scientists communicate with computers through appropriate programming languages and codes and develop the systems and software that enable computers to operate. This requires an understanding of, and an ability to manipulate, algorithms and associated mathematics. Computer science feeds into Information Technology, which centres on the use of computer systems, including their application for network and database design. These information technology aspects are incorporated into the Unicaf University BSc programme so that students have a well-rounded technical skill set for their future career development.
Computer science is a major source of technological innovation through the development of new software and computer applications, often leading to entrepreneurial activity. For this reason the Computer Science programme at Unicaf University incorporates modules on management, innovation and entrepreneurship, and an introduction to e-business. Graduates of the programme are therefore in a position to engage with the management and business side of the ICT sector, as well as the technical side of ICT, and have a starting point to launch their own business should they so wish.
The Unicaf University BSc programme in Computer Science consists of 20 modules, each contributing 24 credits to the final qualification. The programme structure and module composition is outlined in detail in section 4. The online nature of the programme allows it to be accessed by working people as well as full time students.
