Taught Postgraduate Programmes

At DkIT we offer a range of taught master’s programmes. The award is usually based on examinations following the prescribed programme of study. The examinations may include extended essays or reports, project work, or a dissertation in addition to, or in place of, conventional written papers. The summer vacation of the final year of study is frequently devoted to the preparation and submission of a dissertation related to a specific aspect of the programme of study.

Taught Master programmes normally entail at least one year of full-time study or two years of part-time study. The academic year usually commences in September, however, it should be noted that some programmes have different start dates.
