IUM LAUNCHES A NEW PROGRAMME

The IUM has rescently launched a Bachelor's Honors Degree in Digital and Communication Technology (DCT) and the registration for the January 2010 intake is now in progress. The Bsc Hons DCT is an industrial driven and industrial oriented hands-on programme that satisfies the current industrial technology needs.

Enrolled students will trained in business, electronics, data communication, design and computer science and how they can use the right technology to solve communication problems. They also will be trained in designing multimedia, how to deal with clients, get an accurate idea of the message they wish to communicate, design and represent the message in an appropriate media. They will learn how to create, maintain, store, distribute and deliver information using various media, digital communications and error correction codes, information theory, channels and transmission techniques. The internship can be completed in a research lab or in any approved workplace. The students will gain knowledge about design engineering, research, developmental engineering and how to adapt technology to technical constraints.
