D. Computing
Facilities
There are two
computer laboratories at ISAE, one catering for the undergraduate
students (25 PC's) and the other for postgraduate students (15 PC's).
All student projects are based on computer-analyzed data. Furthermore,
each student is required to word-process their dissertation to ensure
that they are absolutely computer-literate by the time they get to
the end of their studies at ISAE. Notes: The computers are not networked.
There is access to the Internet but utilization is limited to postgraduate
research.
