Abstract:
Computing and Information Technology (IT) skills became
more and more desirable for many non-IT disciplines such as,
Communication and Media Studies, Education, and Economy.
Therefore, a new multidisciplinary education framework is
required, in which the students IT skills will be developed
along with the soft skills before they are transferred to the
education environment to develop their professional skills.
This is due to the need to satisfy the industries requirements.
We propose an effective and economically feasible educational
framework where the graduates from the Information
Technology departments, fully proficient in data collection,
processing and management besides system analysis skills,
would continue their graduate/postgraduate education in non-
IT disciplines. Such students will have completed, without
wasting any time, the deficiency programs through the use of
free-elective courses which are already available in their
curricula.
