View(s):

ESOFT Computer Studies (Pvt) Ltd announces that it has started recruiting new students for B.Sc. (Hons) Computing and B.A. (Hons) in Business and Finance Honours Degree (BA) Programmes it is conducting in collaboration with the Bucks New University of the United Kingdom. To this effect, the Bucks New University of the United Kingdom and the ESOFT Computer Studies (Pvt) Ltd signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) recently.

UK’s Bucks New University Deputy Vice Chancellor Prof. Derek Godfrey is exchanging the MOU with ESOFT Group of Companies Chairman and managing Director Dr. Dayan Rajapaksa.

Students who complete their Advanced Level exams at this session can enter the Edexcel Higher National Diploma (HND) Programme choosing either the Computing or Business Management fields. This is a modular programme that can be completed in a period of 1 ˝ to 2 years. Thereafter, students can complete their Bachelors Degree via the partnership that ESOFT has with the Buckinghamshire New University. Top-up (final year) degree programmes are currently available in the form of B.Sc (Hons) in Computing, and B.A. (Hons) in Business & Finance. Even if your child wishes to follow a different stream, or wishes to enter a state university, we can offer part time classes on the weekends thereby allowing your child to gain a double qualification which would definitely provide a more solid foundation for the future.

Compared to the option of sending children to overseas universities, this option is several times more economical and it is safer as well since your loved ones stay close to home.

The Edexcel HND + Top Up Degree option is popular due to the fact that the HND gives the student a qualification that is equivalent to the first two years of a British Honours Degree, thereby allowing the student to enroll directly into the final year. Compared with those that go through the conventional pathway, this allows for a considerable saving in time. Edexcel HND is a modular programme, where each subject is assessed via an assignment where the student has to demonstrate knowledge of the subject area. There are no written exams.

The previous batch of students of the B.Sc (Hons) in Computing passed with flying colours earning a total of 5 First Class Degrees, and recruitments are now ongoing for the 3rd intake.

ESOFT Computer Studies has been conducting classes from the year 2000, the year of launch of the BIT External Degree Programme by the University of Colombo to date, and has consistently shown the best results in that programme. It is a specially interesting fact that in the five years 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2012 the Batch Tops of the University of Colombo BIT External Degree Programme are students who have followed the programme through the ESOFT Computer Studies.

The ESOFT Computer Studies is the only higher education institution approved by the University of Moratuwa to conduct classes for its’ BIT Degree Programme. ESOFT conducts classes for the Higher Education Qualifications of the British Computer Society (BCS), the Chartered Institute for Information Technology, and the BCS has given Accredited Course Provider status to ESOFT for conducting these classes. ESOFT Computer Studies (Pvt) Ltd has been conducting

HND Higher Diploma Courses in information technology and business management fields with Edexcel International of the United Kingdom for a very long time.
