Project

The School of Computing (SC) currently has 1200 students (both undergraduate and postgraduate), 97 academic and 35 supporting staffs. They anticipate a 10% growth in both students and academic staffs in the next 3 years. To facilitate this growth, SC plans to build a new 2–stories building. This new building will house 4 new labs, 2 video conferencing rooms, for virtual project meetings. A total 30 workstations for each lab. The labs are divided
into: 1 general purpose lab, 1 Computer Security lab, 1 Network lab and 1 IOT lab. Each lab is equivalent to the current Digital Logic Lab in size and are must be equipped with highspeed internet connection in preparation for education in line with 4IR (4th Industrial Revolution).

*Note: The lab size must for the workstations and other equipment needed for the lab, as well as comfortable for working/learning. SC Chair wants the building to be ‘ready for anything’ and have reliable, efficient and secure
network that can be easily managed. He also noted that it should be cost effective.
