Mathematical and Statistical Skills (MSS)
Information Technology
Mathematics has an important role in Information Technology (IT) as it helps develop the ability to formalize problems. It is a guideline to represent complex problems using equations and prove or perceive a solution. It also plays a significant role in computing, designing, and developing efficient algorithms. This module introduces key topics in Statistics, Discrete Mathematics and Linear Algebra. Statistics helps develop skills required for data representation, analysis, and decision-making, while discrete Mathematics strengthens the logical aspect of problem solving.
