Computer and information technologies have influenced almost every product/service in human life, and the job market will therefore continue to be in demand.
Collaboration in Artificial Intelligence with Design, Business and Hospitality Management, Social Sciences, Health Sciences, and Languages is being established. One can work for many different applications and flexibly move to other professions in one's career.
The gift of intelligence have enabled human beings to invent and develop new technologies and many powerful tools. We strive to motivate students through education to lead a career that, in addition to making a living, also rewardingly contributes to the common good with moral and social responsibilities to better serve the society as contrast to the misuse of technologies to cause harm.
Graduates can, for example, pursue a career in the Digital Entertainment industry by starting as a Mobile App Developer, Web Developer, Game Programmer, User Interface Designer, Computer Animator, Motion Graphics Designer, etc. They can also join the Information Technology industry
Graduates can also pursue further studies on different postgraduate programmes in Digital Entertainment and related areas.
In 2021, government supports $6,000 per month for 1 year for a list of about 27 jobs from participating companies. The support is an addition to the salary paid by the employer.
