BIT Hand Book
BIT Programme is designed to:
- Produce qualified ICT professionals in addition to the traditional University output
- Set professional standards and encourage students to obtain skills in commercial ICT applications and in the usage of necessary tools
- Enable those who could not enter the university to read for a degree in ICT due to severe competition to work towards obtaining such a degree
- Give an opportunity to those non-graduates already working in ICT to obtain a formal qualification in ICT through self-study.
