About the course
The Postgraduate Diploma in Information Technology (PGDIT) is a level 8 programme that has been designed to fill the global skills shortage that has been recognised in the IT sector.
As a result, graduates will be highly employable, and with the PGDIT being only one year in duration we expect this will be a popular choice for those wanting to upgrade their skills and open doors to employment.
The programme's flexible pathways also cater for those students wanting to pursue a career in research.
Students will have the opportunity to enter the IT industry at a higher-than entry-level position. And the advanced technical skills provided by the PGDIT specialist topics ensure graduates are prepared for success in any of these career paths.
Software Development specialist topic enables students to analyse requirements and design, implement, test and deploy a software application.
Information Systems specialist topic covers the acquisition, storage, transformation and analysis of data and information within a business setting.
Networks and Security specialist topic deals with the technical issues involved in designing, implementing, administering and securing computer networks.
