Study Pattern: Computing and Information Technologies University Advanced Diploma (online) - OLUBE

On this page, you will find the study patterns for our University Advanced Diploma in Computing and Information Technologies online (OLUBE) programme.

These study patterns highlight the modules that you will need study over the next 12 months. Please note that all students are required to re-enrol at the start of every academic year in September and so within your enrolment you can only choose modules for the current academic year.
