The Master of Science in ICT aims to provide areas of excellence in the field of ICT that are suitable for the Information and Communications industry. The M. Sc. ICT aims to instil a high-level knowledge in the areas of expertise with additional focus on fostering research and development of new ideas in these areas. The M.Sc. ICT seeks to give an understanding of the theory and the current research status of various areas in the particular course being followed. Through a selection of advanced elective topics, you will be able to select the areas of greatest interest leading to the M. Sc. Dissertation. As a successful graduate, you will be able to move into a doctoral research degree.
