The Faculty of Information
Technology |
|
|
We live in an era where the value of
information is increasing rapidly.
Its effect on our society depends on
the prevalence and the application
of this information. Information
should be spread among specialists
in the first place in order to be of
the utmost benefit to individuals,
society and its institutions. The
importance of gaining information
springs from its crucial role in
developing people. Therefore, the
role of the computer as a means of
communication plays a vital role in
facilitating the flow of information
and its pervasiveness in all walks
of life.
International experience tells us
that backward people are those who
did not experience the industrial
revolution or who experienced it at
later stages; whereas the backward
people of tomorrow will be those who
have not experienced the revolution
of information yet or who have not
kept up with the technological
revolution that accompanied the
technical revolution.
Accordingly, the Faculty of
Information Technology was
established in 2006 in keeping with
Article 27 issued by the Committee
of Higher Education whose main
concern is information technology.
Therefore, the Faculty contributes
to developing the educational
network through the training and
preparation of qualified local
trainees who will contribute to the
plan of developing manpower and
education as a whole. In addition,
the Faculty aims to establish a
higher level of technology and to
contribute to educating a qualified
generation who are able to deal with
the newly developed technology and
therefore, able to serve many
different sectors in the society
through offering scientific and
technical logistic advice. Finally,
the Faculty seeks to distribute the
information culture and to bring to
light the mechanization peculiar to
information technology. |
