تفاصيل الدورة

The Post-graduate Diploma is a two semester taught programme in computing which focuses on topics applicable to Enterprise Applications Development (also known as Cloud Computing). These are followed by a placement module in which students will gain practical experience working in a company engaged in enterprise applications development. Its aim is to take a graduate in a computing or computing related field and augment his/her skills and knowledge in readiness to begin a career in enterprise applications development. It is designed to ensure that graduates are given both a base for beginning to work immediately in the industry/field and also for continuing self-development. These skill sets are reinforced with a strong emphasis on teamwork and project work.

The additional dissertation component for the Masters will offer the student the opportunity to apply a range of topics covered in the post-graduate diploma to demonstrate an extended knowledge and ability in that area. The dissertation will normally be completed over one to two additional semester’s depending on whether its done on a part-time or full-time basis.

From an industry point of view, this programme was developed in partnership with the IT industry in the north-west and with SITA (Specialists in air transportation communications and IT solutions) in particular. The objective of developing the course and of providing a placement is to ensure a supply of highly-skilled and experienced graduates for key employers locally and throughout Ireland. The existence of the course and the placement reflects the commitment of employers to this field of expertise. Graduates from this course can expect to find attractive employment opportunities locally and nationally. For example SITA are in the process of tripling their work force over the next two years. The national projections for jobs growth in Enterprise Applications Development (Cloud Computing) are enormous: Cloud computing is the way forward
