It focuses on the use of technology to solve business problems. This programme is less competitive to enter, making it an accessible option for many SHS leavers.
What Information Systems covers
Information Systems sits at the crossroads of business and computing. Programmes of this kind usually teach you how to analyse an organisation's data needs, design and manage databases, model business processes, and build or customise software that helps companies run efficiently. You will also learn about networks, system security, and project management, giving you a broad practical skill set.
How hard it is to get a place
Entry to this programme is less competitive than to many other computing degrees. That means that if you meet the university's advertised WASSCE requirements, you have a realistic chance of being admitted. As with similar programmes at other Ghanaian universities, the selection is not as tight, but you still need to qualify in the subjects required for computing programmes.
What you can do after graduation
Most graduates go on to roles where they help organisations get the most from their technology. You could become a systems analyst, an IT consultant, a database administrator, or a business intelligence specialist. The skills you build also prepare you for postgraduate study in information technology or business analytics.
