Kirirom Institute of Technology (KIT Cambodia) is an international boarding university located in Kirirom National Park, Cambodia. In 2014, the Department of software engineering was established in a characteristic environment where nature and IT are fused. After that, the Department of Tourism Management were opened in 2019, and the Department of Architecture and the Master of Software Engineering will be opened in 2021. Also, from 2018, we started accepting foreign students (starting from Japanese). The 9th batch will enroll in March 2021. (March 2021)
Bachelor / Department
Software Engineering Department
The Department of software engineering emphasizes raising the standard of education by introducing cutting-edge technology based on information engineering. Kirirom Institute of Technology also offers internship opportunities based on latest technology and business trends. Therefore, even in the Department of software engineering, we are developing human resources who can play an active role immediately after graduation through practical internships as well as classes. In addition, in internships many students are involved in startups and there are also students/alumnus who are entrepreneurs. In addition, all lectures and internships are conducted in English by faculty members with a strong international flair, with the goal of acquiring the foundation to work internationally (except for some projects). In the Department of software engineering, international faculty and staff from India, Philippines, Japan, and Cambodia are involved in education. (March 2021)
