The Department offers a wide range of taught and research degree programmes aimed to equip graduates with technical skills and professional knowledge to play leading roles in the digital revolution that is currently in progress, much of which is fueled by the advent of the Internet, web computing, and interactive multimedia technologies.

The Department is also committed to continuing education, particularly, in the application of information technology (IT) in industry and commerce. This is reflected in the variety of part-time programmes initiated by the Department.

The programmes, while giving graduates a solid theoretical foundation in software design and engineering, also emphasise practical system implementation skills. This strong combination of theory and practice is clearly demonstrated in the Department's research outputs in international journals, its software development and consultancy assignments for the local industries and the inclusion of an industrial placement year in the undergraduate programme in Computer Science.
