The graduates of the Program can also be employed as educators in public or private secondary schools.
The graduates of the program are eligible to register to the Technical Chamber of Cyprus (ETEK).
Candidates can be admitted to the Program only if they satisfy the general admission requirements of the University.
For the Computer Engineering BSc program, all candidates must take a placement test in Mathematics and English, prior to their enrolment in the Program. Candidates who fail the placement test must enroll under a probation status and are required to register to relevant foundation courses. Student workload for these foundation courses is accounted in the total student workload, which is limited to the maximum of 30 ETCS per semester.
Recognition of Prior Learning
Candidates who have completed university level work in an accredited program are eligible to apply for transfer admission. Candidates can be granted transfer credits according to the general arrangements for recognition of prior learning of the University.
There are no specific examination regulations, assessment and grading methods employed by this Program. The examination regulations, assessment methods and grading system for this Program are the same as the relevant general university regulations.
Graduation Requirements
Students are eligible for graduation after successfully completing 240 ECTS credits in the courses listed in the Program Structure.
Furthermore, a student can graduate only if their CGPA is greater or equal to 5.00 out of 10.00. Graduating students with a CGPA less than 5.00 might have to take extra courses or repeat a number of courses in order to improve their grades.
Access to Further Studies
The graduates of the Program have access to graduate studies (2nd and 3rd Cycle) in disciplines related with the discipline of computer engineering.
