    Hi there,



    Basically it's an innovative new, four-year BSc programme that prepares
    graduates for a career in Business IT Management. Graduates will be
    able to deploy IT solutions at the business front line based on their understanding of both technological possibilities and business needs.

    The BSc in Enterprise Computing differs from the discontinued
    Information Systems Stream in a number of ways. For example, it has a
    greater emphasis on business modules in order to provide graduates with
    the skills they need to target technology solutions that meet business needs. It also incorporates a year-long work placement (INTRA) to
    provide graduates with a greater in-depth understanding of how
    businesses operate in practice.



    I've attached a flyer for it. You can move from CA to EC and from EC to CA in the first year if you want too which gives people who are interested in computing (but don't know how much they'll like it) a bit more breathing space.

    It's 300 points, requires a pass in H Maths or honour (c3 min) in Ordinary maths- there are 55 places. You'd want to get on it prestty quick to add it to your CAO form - isn't today the last day? It's DC120.

    There's more information on www.dcu.ie/computing or PM me or email (my email address and number is on the flyer)
