Overview
Key Facts of the Computer Information Systems PhD programme from Universiti Teknologi Brunei
School of Computing and Informatics (SCI) originated from the Department of Computing and Information Systems that was established in 1986 when Universiti Teknologi Brunei (UTB) was still in its infancy. It was made one of the departments under the School of Business and Management in 2003. When UTB was upgraded to a university in 2008, it became a program area under the Faculty of Business and Computing. Recognising the rapid growth in the fields of dedicated computing systems and creative informatics, SCI was formed in 2014 and consists of three programme areas:
- Creative Computing (CC)
- Computer and Information Systems (CIS)
- Computer Network Security (CNS)
As part of the journey to the University’s aspiration to become a ranked engineering and technology university, our mission is to produce graduates with exceptional lifelong skills and relevant competencies through innovative teaching and research. Our School has successfully created excellent programmers, software engineers and industry leaders, and we will continue to be the main drivers in areas of strategic importance nationally and globally.
