Registration begins for Colombo University BIT Degree at OpenArc

For the past 20 years, OpenArc Education has focused on making their graduates truly “employment ready” long way before their graduation. There are a multitude of success stories at OpenArc Campus directly associating with their IT related programs that integrate Academic Training in the latest concepts and technologies with genuine industrial exposure.

With a lot of academic success stories in hand, OpenArc Campus has begun registering students for the Bachelor of Information Technology external degree of the University of Colombo. OpenArc, an institution that had been conducting classes for the Colombo University BIT degree for a period of 14 years since the inception of the program has made arrangements to provide a host of special benefits to students registering with them this year.

Speaking on these benefits, Managing Director of OpenArc School of Business and Technology said: “We are providing a host of special benefits to students who are registering with us this year. We will be offering special discounts to students who enroll for the course in the month of July. Being an ISO9001:2008 quality certified institution, we maintain highest standards, in delivering our educational programs. Classrooms, laboratory facilities of the school are of highest standards. Practical training while studying and providing employment opportunities for the best students who complete the program successfully are some of the other benefits.”

OpenArc Group’s new six-storeyed building complex houses both Campus and the software development facility. This enables students to share experience with software developers. Another specialty of the OpenArc School of Business and technology is that the students would be able to study under a student-friendly staff with over 10 years of experience in IT and education fields. 

OpenArc recommends students to join the full-time BIT program, which enables them to continue their studies while gaining software development exposure. The students experience the in-campus environment, where they spend at least four days per week on learning and researching. Its full time students have produced very good results at examinations too. Those who are working can join the part time course that offers classes one day of the week (Saturday or Sunday). 

OpenArc Systems Management Ltd. (OSM), the parent company of the OpenArc School, is the industry leader in developing software for the merchant banks and finance and leasing companies of Sri Lanka.

BIT undergraduates of OpenArc Campus would get the opportunity of getting practical training at OpenArc Systems Management Ltd. and best students who complete the program successfully would get the opportunity of obtaining employment at the same company.
