Due to the vastness and the interdisciplinary nature of the field of computing and technology field, different institutions of higher learning categorise their courses differently and have different requirements. For example, some may call their degree Bachelor of Information Technology while others may refer to it as Bachelor of Computing Technology or even a Bachelor in Computer Engineering. The subjects taught in these degrees may be the same or may differ slightly. Some institutions may teach networking modules under Computing Technology while others may teach it as a separate degree altogether. Thus there are no cut and dry rules when it comes to the computing world. In general, the principles of computer science and information technology are merged in attempts to offer more encompassing course modules and degrees. |

Forensic Computing, sometimes also known as Computer Forensics is the use of medical forensic techniques and knowledge to investigate and examine digital media. The forensic computing investigations are used to identify, recover and analyze data to gain evidence in criminal cases such as fraud, pornography, harassment, copyright offences, illegal downloads, IP theft, murder, virus infections and even organised crime. The results of investigations are often used at the court of law.
At UCTI, the BSc in Information Technology (Forensic Computing) degree includes a study in general knowledge and skills in relation to Information Technology with a specialised and focused emphasis on low-level computer systems knowledge and application skills that enable you to detect computer crime. This course also includes requisite skills and knowledge of legal aspects to assist in the successful prosecution of computer abuse and criminal activity related to computer-based information systems. |
