The course fees are very competitive and provisions have been made to make the payments in monthly instalments. Educational loans have been facilitated with leading banks in the country for students with financial difficulties. As highly paid employment opportunities are amply available in the computer software field, the money spent on two years of education can be recovered from two or three months salary after becoming an information technology professional. Accordingly, the Computer Software Engineering Course of the OCBT Campus is an extremely valuable investment for the future.   

The contents of the Computer Software Engineering Course introduced by the OCBT Campus have been prepared to suit the future international employment market, and are constantly being updated according to timely needs.  In this course, students will be given the necessary theoretical knowledge and practical training in modern computer languages such as Java PHP and .Net and at the conclusion of the program students will be made to sit for examinations such as Microsoft, Oracle and Zend, that issue internationally accepted professional certificates.  Accordingly, after three years from the beginning of the course, every student will be at least a proud processor of Java PHP and .Net professional certificates.
