As the world continues to thrive in the digital age, the demand for professionals with the ability and computing skills has increased exponentially and the emergence of technology has made the computing industry a lucrative career pathway.

Studying computing at Oaklands enables students to leave college feeling as though they have the knowledge, skill and understanding to pursue a rewarding career within the industry, from learning about the importance of IT within businesses, to problem-solving, coding, programming web-design and much more, the opportunities are endless.

My experience at college over the past two years has been truly enriching. The faculty has been exceptionally supportive, fostering an environment that has allowed me to grow academically. They have also provided invaluable guidance in helping me navigate the next steps of my journey in Computer Science.
