| Computer Science and Management Mathematics |
This is a double major course where equal weightage is placed
between Computer Science and Management Mathematics. |
In Computer Science, students learn the principles and skills for
information system design and development, including programming,
database design, web page design and development, and other
related subjects. Students will learn programming languages such as
C, XHTML, Java and VB.Net. |
Students are also trained in mathematical techniques, which would
greatly enhance their skill in computer science. The mathematics
training prepares students for more advanced mathematics relevant to
applications of mathematics to business management and social
sciences. The management mathematics subjects include algebra,
calculus and statistics. |
 |
| Academic and Professional Progression |
The standard of the Diploma in Science (Computer Science and
Management Mathematics) is equivalent to the 1st year of a relevant
Bachelor Degree. Graduates can further their studies to: |
|
| a) | Advanced Diploma in Science cum BS Degree (Junior & Senior Years)
of Campbell University, USA (Computer Science and Management
Mathematics) at TAR College. |
| b) | Relevant Bachelor (Honours) Degree courses at Universiti Tunku
Abdul Rahman (UTAR) or other universities on advanced
standing / credit transfer. |
| Career Prospects |
| Diploma graduates may find employment in a wide area of industries
such as banking and finance, manufacturing, consultancy firms,
insurance, software houses and computer vendors. Graduates may
work as programmers, end-user support staff, assistant system
analysts, IT administrators or executives, systems officers, database
administrators, web designers and other related jobs. |
| Minimum Entry Requirements |
| Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM) as follows:- | ||
| (i) | 5 credits which must include Mathematics | |
| (ii) | Pass in English Language | |
Applicants who only have a pass in SPM Bahasa Malaysia will be
required to obtain a credit in SPM Bahasa Malaysia or equivalent
before the award of Diploma. |
||
A pass in the English Language (1119 Level) course conducted
