Descriptions
Objective of the ICT education is to learn how to develop and use applications and systems needed for the communication between people, and companies, as well as between equipment, devices and things. In addition to the technical qualifications, we have integrated as part of studies oral and written communication skills in different languages, business skills, as well as the negotiation and leadership skills in order to enable phenomenon based learning. Given the rapid development of ICT industry, the engineer needs good learning skills, including the ability to follow the development of the ICT technologies but also an attitude to the continuous development from the lifelong learning perspective. International work environments, project based working and challenging tasks require the engineer to have good assessment and problem-solving skills. In particular, the client projects require good interpersonal skills but the development of social media applications and games requires good psychological and artistic stance and approach.
The extent of the engineering education is 240 ECTS credits. The first year of studies is organised in four study themes. They provide fundamental knowledge and skills in the field of ICT and also introduce the study paths in Information and Communication Technology Degree Programme. This enables a student to choose the most suitable study path for him/her. Mathematics, physics as well as computer science, language and business skills are integrated in the study themes.
Students will choose their study path after the first of studies. Major options are: Health Technology, Software Engineering and Mobile Solutions. The content of the studies is based on the working life and partly phenomenon based learning. Some of the studies, if applicable, are connected to Metropolia's innovation hubs and projects there.
