Industry Partnerships
Our courses are reviewed annually under the direction of a Departmental Advisory Board. This Board is an independent body of external experts established at the initiative of the Department to enable it to implement its vision to create a learning environment that is relevant and current and to ensure that the needs of the current job market are satisfied.
Members of the Board are prominent Information Technology practitioners and Chief Information Officers of leading national organisations who offer their time, expertise and guidance for the benefit of the development of young Information Systems professionals.
The Board provides a bridge between academia and industry and provides services to the Department that are tremendously valuable to students. These include:
- Internships and industry visits
- Value-added guest lectures
- Academic resources
