What will you study?
This program is designed to cultivate learners into leaders in digital innovation who can address real-world problems on a global scale across society and industry. By leveraging modern knowledge and cutting-edge technologies such as AI, IoT, Big Data, Blockchain, and Automation, students are empowered to develop novel solutions.
