About the Faculty of Science & Technology

The Faculty of Science and Technology (FoST) is concerned primarily with study areas that involve integrating the information basis for modern engineering with the more conventional physical and materials science approach to keys areas such as water, waste, energy, and materials.

The careful integration of these areas results in a unique academic experience for highly motivated students.

The faculty offers certificate, diploma and degree programs that concentrate on important contemporary technological issues and needs especially IT, water, waste, energy, and materials.

Presently, the bachelor's degree in information technology and systems engineering will be offered. Minors in information technology and data analysis are also be available.

The undergraduate degree programs prepare graduates to enter directly into professional employment or to continue studies at the graduate level. The requirements for the bachelor's degrees include required and elective courses in computer science, statistics, mathematics, humanities, and general education, and specialty courses in information technology, software engineering, computer engineering, computer science and systems engineering.

Students also have the opportunity to develop interest areas in other fields within IT that offer undergraduate courses but do not now have undergraduate majors.
