WSU Department of Information Technology

Our modern society’s reliance on computing is exceptional, as is the speed at which computing technology is developing and changing. Constant innovation and improvement in software performance and security are paramount. So too is the design and maintenance of our software and hardware systems. Career prospects for information technology graduates are excellent as the majority of businesses worldwide require personnel skilled in programming, systems analysis and design, and the management of computer resources.
Computing skills play an increasingly vital role in almost all occupations, and contribute to productivity gains, innovation and employment growth across all South African and international industries. This leads to exciting career opportunities. The industry is now taking a front-row seat in the development of innovative solutions to many of society’s most pressing issues. Many new jobs have been created in the past decade and the long-term career prospects for diplomates and graduates continue to strengthen.
The Information Technology Department offers a range of accredited ICT qualifications at two delivery sites in Buffalo City – namely Chiselhurst and Potsdam. These programmes are designed to give the learners a firm grounding in both fundamental and advanced principles, and to expose them to the practical and applied nature of the field of their choice.
