Are there other courses that I can take as Elective Concentration Course?

The following courses are offered by the FICS as Elective Concentration courses for ASIT students:

• MMS 130: Information and Communication Technology for Development (ICT4D)
• MMS 143: Introduction to Multimedia Computing
• MMS 151: Introduction to Web Accessibility

However, as noted in the FICS webpage regarding the ASIT Curriculum,  courses in other undergraduate programs can also be used as Elective Concentration courses pending approval of FICS. Specifically, you may use ENT 140: Introduction to Electronic Commerce from the Faculty of Management and Development Studies (FMDS).
