The Strategic Research Plan guides the UBT in responding effectively to the changing environment in research opportunities, and provides a platform for participation in international research-related initiatives. The programme research plan is linked to the institutional research strategy theme: Information Technology. UBT conducts research in all aspects of information technology : hardware and software, components and systems. Programme research topics include: IT systems, data analysis, modelling and simulation, software and programming, systems and data security, telecommunications, health informatics, Cyber security. The most recent staff research contributions are organised through the UBT Annual International Conference on Computer Science and Engineering. Additionally, there are two Centres operating as part of the CSE Department: UBT Centre for Modelling and Simulation and UBT Centre for Data Security and Privacy.
The main research topics as part of the research strategy are:
- Big Data
- Business Intelligence and Knowledge Management
- Cloud Computing and Mobile Technologies
- Cluster and Grid Computing
- Mobile Games, Web applications
- Customer Care Excellence
- E-Services, e-Health, e-Governance
