Applications for the DLSU Doctorate in Information Technology

This is to inform you that the DLSU College of Computer Studies is currently accepting applicants to the Doctorate in Information Technology (DIT). The last day for submission of complete documents supporting applications is February 29, with a testing date to follow shortly thereafter. Applicants who successfully complete the first stages of the application process may be asked to undergo additional procedures (for example interviews). Please visit www.dlsu.edu.ph, and click on "Graduate Admissions" for more details on the process.

The Doctorate in Information Technology (DIT) Program of the DLSU College of Computer Studies is a three-year postgraduate course designed to equip candidates with knowledge and skills needed to become agents for societal and organizational change through the planning, management, and implementation of IT in ways that are theoretically grounded, relevant, innovative, critical, and ethical.

The course seeks to bridge professional relevance (practice) with conceptual grounding (theory), and aims at developing a breed of professionals who can seamlessly link three domains: social and organizational knowledge, technical expertise, and ethics. A key assumption of the course is that changes in society are most effectively achieved by working through reshaping its most significant institutions. In this course, emphasis is placed on equipping students to understand, plan, and manage IT interventions in business, educational, and government settings.

In the course of taking the program students will depart from popular and oversimplified models that view the IT processes as linear, predictable, revolutionary, utopian, and deterministic. They will increasingly understand that technology is complex, socially-shaped, value-laden, and capable of being harnessed for diverse goals, which in turn are not equally desirable in terms of their normative implications. At the end of the program successful candidates can then become change agents in different capacities: as policy makers, chief information officers, high-level lecturers or researchers, heads of organizations or officers in charge of large departments.

Again interested parties are encouraged to visit www.dlsu.edu.ph >,Graduate Admissions for more details on the process.
