Student Projects
Some programs offered by Cyprus College, involve a group assignment as part of the final year studies. This project is designed to address a specific company systems requirement, and the work could involve for example, producing and implementing an operational computer system. Proposals for subjects, and for collaboration in the execution of this work, are welcomed.
If you have an IS/IT or business related problem that you do not have the resources to resolve for yourself, then perhaps we can offer the solution. Our final year students, in groups of four, work on individual projects, over a six month period, between October and Easter. It has been estimated that each project would cost a company approximately £20,000 in consultancy fees, on the open market.
