Institute of Computer Aided Engineering and Computer Science (AIU)

Graduates will acquire skills in structured design of algorithms and their implementation in programming language Visual Basic. They will gain competence in the use of object libraries of language and compatible applications. The course is designed for students to gain the confidence for solving of engineering problems and issues, and not have to rely on the services and products of third parties. Advanced application interface allows students to use their algorithms in other products, especially spreadsheets and CAD. The knowledge and skills in algorithms and programming will enable graduates to the creative use of computer technology in all technical fields.

Fundamentals of algorithms and programming, basic knowledge of technical English
