This three-year programme equips students with fundamental computing knowledge and the latest technology. In year 1, all students learn common subjects before specialising in one of the following areas – Software Engineering, Game Development, Data Science or Cybersecurity – in the second year. Each designed specialisation prepares students with specific skills. Students will also complete a final year project and undergo industrial training to acquire practical industry experience.

- Software Engineering:
Focuses on designing and developing software systems with innovative methodologies and sophisticated tools. Students are exposed to various techniques of analysing user requirements and specifications, as well as the design, implementation and verification of software system. - Game Development:
Integrates fundamental concepts of software engineering with both technical and creative aspects of game design and development. Students are exposed to various types of game production – from 2D to 3D, and from virtual to augmented reality game projects. - Data Science:
Focuses on designing and developing solutions to draw useful insights from the availability of large volumes of data, known as Big Data. Students will receive fundamental training in computer science theories and learn techniques on the processing of Big Data for analytics that can be impactful to business. - Cybersecurity:
Built on the technical foundation of computer science, the specialization focuses on the array of sophisticated techniques and innovative approaches used to protect data and information systems. Students are exposed to both offensive and defensive security methodologies such as ethical hacking, digital forensics and network security, as well as policies and ethical issues of cybersecurity.
