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. |

Network Computing involves the study, setup, configuration and management of computer networks: a set of computers linked to each other in various ways in various settings to enable communication and data sharing between users and computers from different locations. Computer networks are the base of the Internet and the World Wide Web. The different network architectures include Local Area Networks (LANs), Wide Area Networks (WANs) and Virtual Private Networks (VPNs). Network Computing is a very interesting subject. Its area of study is vast and includes the study, setup, troubleshooting and configuration of network topologies, protocols, design, architecture, cabling, security, hardware, software and many more. The BSC in Information Technology (Network Computing) programme at UCTI includes a study in general knowledge and skills in relation to Information Technology with a specialised and focused emphasis on the use of networking and data communications technologies. |
