The Department of Industrial Management

The Department of Industrial Management is one of the very first departments in the Science faculty which was established with the aim of providing education, research, and training in the field of Industrial Management to mould science students into professionals who are well-versed in both Management and IT streams.

The Department of Industrial Management offers two Bachelor degree programs: Bachelor of Science Honours in Management and Information Technology (MIT), and Information Technology (IT). However, passing all the IT modules in the first year is a prerequisite for pursuing the Bachelor's degree in IT. 

The students can either opt to get a general degree after completing three years, or complete four years to get an honors degree.

Students who have successfully completed their A/Ls in the Science stream and achieved a minimum grade of "C" in one of the following subjects: Higher Mathematics, Combined Mathematics, Mathematics, or Physics are eligible to apply.

The Department of Industrial Management offers two Master degree programs. The Master of Information Technology programme is designed for graduates desiring to enhance their competencies when pursuing a career in Information Technology and for those graduates in other functional areas desiring to learn Information Technology to enhance their ability to provide effective and efficient solutions to their stakeholders. The Master of Data Analytics programme is designed for graduates desiring to enhance their competencies in data analytics concepts, tools, and technologies for delivering data-driven solutions to diverse business problems in the industry and society.

Graduates have a wide range of career options, including roles in operations management, supply chain management, software development, project management, system administration, network engineering and more. Overall, the department's strong academic foundation equips students for success in various industries.
