INTERNATIONAL DEGREE
PROGRAMMES TO
COMPLETE AT SLIIT
BACHELOR OF COMPUTER SCIENCE
ABOUT THE PROGRAMME

The Bachelor of Computer Science is a program designed to provide a deeper understanding of all
aspects of computer technology. Students will be able to develop strong analytical, logical and
development skills necessary to advance computing and its applications. Students gain solid
technological foundations and skills to play a critical role in creating, developing, implementing, and
evaluating new systems.

BACHELOR OF INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY

ABOUT THE PROGRAMME
The Bachelor of Information Technology is focused on
the three pillars of data, code, and people. Students
will benefit from the program that allows them to
undertake a core set of courses, as well as the
opportunity to specialize in any of these
interconnected areas. Working across these three
areas, students will graduate as creative
technologists, able to apply technical expertise to
complex human problems. Unique to this program is a
project-based studio stream where the student will
apply cumulative knowledge to the design and
development of novel technologies. A studio is a place
where students drive their own learning. Students are
expected to be active learners who take a hands-on
approach to work in teams to develop ideas. The
Bachelor of Information Technology will not only equip
you with the design and technical skills you need but
also the teamwork and communication skills that are
essential in today’s job market.In your final year, you

ENTRY REQUIREMENTS :
Minimum 3"S" passes in G.C.E A/L Sri Lanka or
minimum 3"D" passes in G.C.E A/L Cambridge or
Edexcel (in any subject stream) in one and the same
sitting and pass the Aptitude Test conducted by SLIIT.

SUCCESS STORIES
Information Technology should no longer be viewed merely as a subject of
study or career path. It is ubiquitous, and our technological literacy has a direct
impact on how successfully we interact with the world around us. When I joined
the Computer Systems and Networking program at SLIIT in 2003, the fledgling
institution already had a clear vision of providing students with an environment
in which to immerse themselves in cutting edge technology and ideas. This was
also my first experience of true collaboration with like minded individuals; be it
fellow students or staff, without being spoon-fed lessons or handheld during
assignments, projects, or exams. A true preparation for the “real world” when
one joins the workforce and face life in general as an adult.

The fundamentals I learned at SLIIT gave me confidence to not only face, but “ace” my interview at Fidessa,
the world’s #1 Equities Trading Platform providers. I subsequently worked in Technology teams at three
investment banks in London; Royal Bank of Scotland, Barclays Capital, and JP Morgan. Holding a
First-Class degree at the top of my batch became less relevant with time, as subject knowledge became
obsolete. I believe my commitment to a lifetime of learning beyond formal education has helped me adapt
to change and make progress in my career. After a ten year career in IT roles, I joined the Equities Trading
Desk at JP Morgan in 2017. In today’s rapid electronic Stock Markets and Algorithmic Trading world,

I am an entrepreneur, innovator and avid programmer. The foundation that SLIIT created
for me, is an invaluable component, as dedicated members of staff particularly the
lecturers, provided a solid sounding board to help hone my talent. Every course offered at
SLIIT is incredibly competitive not just on a local but also global scale, with degrees
affiliated with world-renowned universities thus giving students opportunities to gain
internationally recognised qualifications right here in Sri Lanka.

As it is also cost-effective, SLIIT fits into the mould effortlessly, allowing a wider
demographic access to high-quality education.

It is my vision to become Sri Lanka’s premier end-to-end digital solutions provider in

Mobile and Enterprise Solutions, Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning, Immersive Technologies, and Game Design and
Development, making Sri Lanka a digital hub whilst stopping ‘brain drain’ in the country as we are losing the cream of our
talent.

SLIIT was where I laid my foundation for my success. If the support given by SLIIT was not there, I wouldn’t have been able
to achieve this fast. The foundation that SLIIT created for me, is an invaluable component, also the dedicated members of
staff particularly the lecturers, provided a solid sounding board to help hone my talent. It is with immense pleasure I tell
that the institution is deeply investing in their students’ futures. Every course offered at SLIIT is incredibly competitive not
just on a local but also global scale, with degrees affiliated with world-renowned universities thus giving students
opportunities to gain internationally recognised qualifications right here in Sri Lanka.

There are many people who have been a strength to me during my journey: My own immediate family, Bathiya and
Santhush, Saliya Weerasekara, and all the employees of Arimac family.’

 CODEFEST

An annual event hosted by the SLIIT Faculty

of Computing, this is one of the biggest
software competitions aimed at encouraging
and promoting software application design
amongst school and university students. The
annual increase in entries, fierce competition
amongst students and a rise in event
categories, has made Codefest an event
looked forward to by many schools and
universities.

‘Codefest is one of the many initiatives taken

by SLIIT, aimed at creating a centre of
excellence to advance and disseminate
knowledge. It is indeed a great honour to
have one of our events recognised by the
Ministry of Telecommunications and Digital
Infrastructure. Codefest is an ideal platform
to promote the application of skills learnt
through ICT related modules taught in
schools and universities’ notes Professor
