MPhil in Information & Communication Technology (ICT)
The MPhil ICT programme is informed by original research, and knowledge and skills acquisition around the development of ICT artefacts. It takes a philosophical and scientific approach to the study of ICT design; and is therefore guided principally by the development and application of technology and knowledge.
The programme combines knowledge and technology themes that will equip students with knowledge on the development and application of ICTs. Thus, students will be well-prepared to pursue Doctor of Philosophy degrees, and also to take a scientific approach to new ICT development and management in the industrial world.
