IIT highly praised by a mother
View(s):Every parent wants the best for their children. From the time the tiny tot turns around with a big toothless smile and utters his or her first word, parents dream and constantly worries about their children’s education.
With the globally accepted courses offered at Informatics Institute of Technology (IIT), parents now have little to fear as the programs offered cover a wide area of subjects, opening doors to unlimited opportunities for students.
Pioneers in offering British degrees in Sri Lanka IIT, is today recognised among the best choices in higher education for students interested in furthering learning and careers in the field of Information Systems with Business Management and Software Engineering.
With more and more students now interested in the particular fields especially in the former, IIT offers a qualification that is on par with the world standards and are accepted worldwide for its content, quality and the skill development.
It was this that drew Mrs. Thenmozhy Kugamourthy, a Researcher at the Centre for Policy Alternatives to look into IIT when considering higher education options for her daughter.
Why select IIT from the wide line up of institutes that offer higher education in the country? “IIT is one of the leading institutes in higher education and it has a very good reputation in IT and Business industries of Sri Lanka. It also gives a world recognised degree to our local students,” Mrs. Kugamourthy said. What really caught the eye was the sandwich degree with one year placement which made IIT stand out from other institutes and academies.
“Every industry needs experience to provide good career opportunity. Having one year industry experience even before completing the degree is really a plus point to build up the career in future,” she said.
She also noted that thanks to IIT and the discipline it instils in students, her daughter has become a driven and confident person. “My

daughter is becoming more active in completing her assignments perfectly. She has become a perfectionist.” She has also learnt to manage her time and plan the activities accordingly which will be vital when sticking to deadlines in a career. “She has also learnt a lot about the society and how to socialise with different people. All this I believe will give her an additional edge when she starts her professional career.”
The BEng (Hons) in Software Engineering is a four year full time course with sandwich placements emphasising on fundamental principles, design, acquisition of practical skills and evaluation of technologies among others.
BSc (Hons) Information Systems with Business Management is delivered over the same time period and is a cross-disciplinary course utilises expertise in the areas of information systems and business and management providing an education for people who aspire to become managers in organisations, or who will run their own business related to the knowledge economy.
“I would strongly recommend IIT for those who want their children to become a world recognized degree holder and who want to build a good future and career for their kids in the IT industry. IIT is the best place for higher education,” Mrs. Kugamourthy said.
