Higher Diploma in Computer Science
The Higher Diploma in Computer Science (HDCS) further builds upon the skillsets of the Diploma in Information Technology. It provides one with a solid grounding in subject areas, preparing one for a career in IT and computer science across a wide spectrum of industries, and is suitable for those who wish to prepare themselves for essential roles in the workplace requiring technical expertise, or as a progression pathway to higher education.
Upon completion of the HDCS, students will have attained strong skillsets and requisite domain knowledge, and may progress to degree programmes at the University of East London and may be eligible to gain advanced standings for certain course selections. Students are encouraged to bring their own laptop for practicing laboratory practical exercises.
