At Horizon Campus we partnered to offer the BIT Degree from the University of Moratuwa as it has a curriculum that trains students to think, create and translate and learn to embrace technology not just for its own sake but for driving business value.
Technological innovations are in demand in many different fields and occupations. New ideas and creative skills are needed to make those fields more effective, efficient, and able to cope with the accelerating changes in the industry. Our mission therefore through this degree is to prepare students to make huge impacts through technology.
As such, with programmes supported by leading edge learning and teachings, our IT students and graduates can translate their knowledge, new ideas, and innovations into lucrative business opportunities.
We will continue to collaborate and form partnerships such as the one with UOM, to continue building powerful and effective educational programmes for our students.
