Bachelor of Science in Information Technology (BSIT)
Introduction
The Information Technology (IT) discipline has been defined in ACM IEEE IT Curricula 2017& 2020 Report, as: all aspects of computing and its integration into all aspects of today’s society and digital platform economy. Organizations of every kind are dependent on information technology and computing systems that must work properly and efficiently, be secure, and scale with organizational objectives and customer needs. IT professionals select computing products and services, integrate them to enhance supported environments, and develop, adapt, and manage computing technologies to meet the organization’s goals and business objectives. The IT innovations are the object of study of the information technology discipline. These innovations frame the questions IT professionals and researchers pose and inform the methods and practices by which IT complex problems are solved, and new discoveries are made.
An IT Graduate is defined as:
A collaborative problem solver, skilled practitioner, or applied research investigator who enjoys getting the technology to work effectively and meet user needs in a variety of settings. IT graduates work collaboratively to integrate new technologies in the workplace and community and ensure a superior and productive experience for the user and all the organization’s functions.
IT graduates apply their understandings of system integration, development, and operation, and also deploy, manage IT services and platforms that meet the business goals and objectives of the organization.
In the community, IT graduates use their expertise in implementing a wide range of IT solutions to support community members’ projects and activities. IT graduates are professionals prepared to perform duties in an ethical manner.
The educational outcomes that define the IT graduate profile follow (ACM/IEEE).
1. Analyze complex, real-world problems to identify and define computing requirements and apply
computational approaches to the problem-solving process.
2. Design, implement, and evaluate a computing-based solution to meet a given set of computing requirements
in the context of the IT discipline.
3. Communicate effectively with diverse audiences the technical information that is consistent with the intended
audience and purpose.
4. Make informed judgments and include unique perspectives of others in computing practice based on legal
and ethical principles.
5. Function effectively on teams and employ self- and peer-advocacy to address bias in interactions, establish
goals, plan tasks, meet deadlines, manage risk, and produce deliverables.
6. Identify and analyze user needs and consider them during the selection, integration, and administration of
computer-based systems.
Bachelor of Science in Information Technology (BSIT) Overview
Vision
To be internationally recognized Information Technology Program that nurtures academic excellence, innovation, research and emerging IT skills.
Mission
The BSIT Program's mission is to provide students with futuristic educational programs, and to equip them with the necessary knowledge and skills to become leaders and innovators in the field of Information Technology, and to produce graduates who will be successful professionals, engaged in lifelong learning, and who will be committed to serve their community.
Program Goals
1. To improve skills in professional communication, problem solving, and numerical capabilities for decision making.
2. To develop an understanding of the theory and complexities of information technology towards application and benefit of the organization and society at large
3. To develop an understanding of the legal, ethical and security issues associated with information technology in the workplace and in society.
4. To develop higher order thinking and competitive skills and competencies of students through meaningful industry interaction, thereby improving their employability.
5. To provide a conducive value based learning environment to the students during their study and inculcate a habit of lifelong independent learning for continuous growth and development.
Program Educational Objectives (PEOs):
Upon successful completion of the BSIT program students should be able to:
1. Analyze a complex computing problem and to apply principles of computing and other relevant disciplines to identify solutions.
2. Design, implement, and evaluate a computing-based solution to meet a given set of computing requirements in the context of the program’s discipline.
3. Communicate effectively in a variety of professional contexts.
4. Recognize professional responsibilities and make informed and equitable judgments in computing practice based on legal and ethical principles.
5. Function effectively as a member or leader of a team engaged in activities appropriate to the program’s discipline.
6. Use systemic approaches to select, develop, apply, integrate, and administer secure computing technologies to accomplish user goals. [IT]
7. Demonstrate an understanding of various concepts and principles of Information Technology.
8. Apply research, innovation and entrepreneurial skills in the development of innovative and sustainable Information Technology and Enterprise computing solutions.
Enterprise Computing Concentration
Enterprise wide information technology known as enterprise systems forms the backbone of the organizations in today’s highly dynamic global economic environment. To design better enterprise systems such as Enterprise Resource Planning Systems (ERP), Supply Chain Management Systems (SCM) and Customer Relations Management Systems (CRM), information technology professionals require a good understanding and competencies in enterprise computing. The program will provide students with knowhow to develop reliable, scalable and secure enterprise systems. Students will be equipped to handle complex issues and challenges associated with the enterprise computing. The major prepares the student to analyze enterprise information needs, and recommend appropriates solutions for effective implementation.
