The course modulesof the degree programmes offered under FOC are updated periodically to be in line with the rapid advancements taking place in the industry and are in constant touch with local and global professional bodies. The graduates of the FOC are in high demand from leading local and some global companies. Thereby, the FOC has been able to make significant inroads to the development of the IT industry both locally as well as globally.
The job training aspect is driven by a unique intensive programme dubbed“Industry Preparation Training (IPT)” conducted by the FOC in collaboration with leading industry experts.

In addition to that, the students of the faculty engage in various other co-curricular activities such as the FOSS (Free and Open-Source Software) club and IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers) student chapter, which are actively engaged in conducting knowledge sharing sessions and development activities.
