You also learn how to support users, manage data, and apply technology to real-world business problems.

The skills you build are practical and directly useful in almost every industry that uses computers.

How hard it is to get a place

Other institutions with less competitive IT programmes include Academic City University College, Catholic University of Ghana, and Central University. Even so, admission is not automatic, so you should check the specific entry requirements for this university before applying.
