About the Dual Degree Program

Adamson University signed a Memorandum of Agreement with Minghsin University of Science and Technology (MUST) for a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science and Information Engineering dual degree program. This entails a stronger collaboration between the two institutions in the fields of research, engineering and computing sciences.

 

Through the program, students will receive the degrees Bachelor of Science in Computer Science from Adamson University and Bachelor of Science in Information Engineering from MUST, strengthening their academic credentials and preparing them for global competence.

 

Minghsin University of Science and Technology (MUST)?

Minghsin University of Science and Technology (MUST) is a private university located in Xinfeng Township, Hsinchu County, Taiwan. It was established in 1963 as a junior college

and was later upgraded to a four-year institution in 1997. The University’s mission is to provide education in science and technology-related fields.

 

MUST offers a range of undergraduate and graduate programs across various disciplines, providing a well- rounded education that combines theoretical knowledge with practical skills to prepare students for the workforce. 

 

The institution has a strong emphasis on research and innovation, collaborating with industry partners and government organizations to promote technological advancements and contribute to economic development. MUST also fosters international collaborations and exchanges, welcoming students and scholars from around the world.

 

What is Computer Science and Information Engineering?

The study of Computer Science and Information Engineering (CSIE) addresses the design, development, and use of computer systems and technologies, and combines aspects of computer science and information engineering. It is an interdisciplinary field that combines the theoretical foundations of Computer Science with the practical application of Information Engineering principles. It encompasses the study of algorithms, programming, software development, data management, information systems, and network technologies. Professionals in this field are equipped to work in a wide range of industries, including software development, data analysis, cybersecurity, information management, and computer networking.

 

Computer scientists study theoretical underpinnings of computer systems, computation and problem-solving, hence, the program’s Computer Science component focuses on the underlying notions, ideas, and methods of computation, namely on skills and expertise development in programming languages, data structures, algorithms, computer architecture, operating systems, databases, artificial intelligence and software engineering. 

 

Meanwhile, Information Engineers collect, store, retrieve, and process information in a variety of fields. Following such description, the dual degree’s Information Engineering element highlights the application of Computer Science concepts and methods in information systems, data management, database design, information security, data analytics, human-computer interface, and network engineering to efficiently process, manage, and utilize information.
