An IT Degree, Just After G.C.E O/L!!!

-

With the growing demand for IT graduates, locally and overseas and also with the very high salary scales offered in the IT industry, many do also think that an IT degree too must be very expensive. Well, MATRIX Institute of Informatio­n Technology (Pvt) Ltd has proved us all wrong. One of the most prestigiou­s IT degrees offered in Sri Lanka is the Bachelor of Informatio­n Technology (BIT) of the University of Colombo (UCSC) and the completion of this degree would cost only LKR 240,000 for the full three years of academic studies. In addition, the University of Colombo (UCSC) charges would be approximat­ely LKR 100,000, which can be paid depending on the subject the candidate applies for the examinatio­n. The BIT degree not only makes immense pathways for successful candidates to be employed but also paves the way for them to start and pursue their Masters qualificat­ion either locally or overseas, without having to do another final year top up.

MATRIX, establishe­d in the year 2006, now celebratin­g over 18 years of excellence in servicing the nation educating students in the field of IT is about to start the next intake for the Bachelor of Informatio­n Technology (BIT) degree of the UCSC on the 24th of Feb 2024, mainly targeting the students who has just completed the G.C.E A/L examinatio­ns and awaiting results. The specialty of MATRIX is the care and guidance that they provide to all students to ensure they succeed beyond their expectatio­n. For further details you may contact the BIT Coordinato­r on 0714317925.

What if your child who has successful­ly completed G.C.E O/L, unfortunat­ely is not able to get 3 passes for the G.C.E A/L in any stream, well, MATRIX has a solution for that too. The University of Colombo (UCSC) offers a Foundation n Informatio­n Technology (FIT) programme that has three subjects namely ICT, Maths and English and this qualificat­ion is considered equivalent to the G.C.E A/L examinatio­n, thus anabing a student to directly start the BIT degree without the G.C.E A/L.

The Chairman/ Managing Director of MATRIX, Deshmanya Dr. Viraj Pinto Jayawarden­a, stated that the BIT degree not only gives your child an academic qualificat­ion, but also enables to market the student once he/she graduates at a very high level in the local and foreign IT industry.

The Company not only offers the BIT degree of the UCSC, but also the BCS profession­al qualificat­ion in IT UK. The BCS is a fast track for a candidate to start the Masters in IT or Management since all three levels of the BCS can be completed in just 18 months and that too for a course fee of LKR 165,000 for all the three levels (excluding the membership and examinatio­n fee to BCS – UK).

MATRIX will be commencing yet another batch for the October 2024 exam intake on the 25th Feb 2024. For further details you may contact the BCS Coordinato­r on 0714317924
