Course overview
Accredited by The British Computer Society
The course has been refocused to not just cover traditional aspects
of computing and its technologies, but to provide you with detailed
knowledge and skills on modern web technologies including web 2.0 and
pervasive computing. You will combine technical skills with team
working and management capability, making you highly attractive to
future employers.
If you choose this course you will benefit from:
- Accreditation from the British Computer Society (BCS)
- The opportunity to spend an industrial placement year working with
an IT company. Companies that students have worked for in the past
include: Microsoft UK Ltd, Accenture and Serck Controls; a practical
approach to many topics with opportunities to put the theory into
practice
- Access to computer laboratories with industry standard software
and hardware where you will mix with students from different years and
related courses
- The opportunity to take part in our IT mentoring scheme run in
conjunction with IBM
- Access to staff who are active in research work including
“pervasive” sensing and computing systems, and distributed systems
and modelling, intelligent agents and grid computing which they bring
into their teaching
- The Faculty has collaborative provision in 20 countries and links
with several hundred universities around the globe
In your first two years you will study the fundamentals of computing
and web technologies including:
- Design for usability
- Programming
- Web technologies
- Software engineering fundamentals
- Mathematics
You will also write and test computer programs and databases. You
will design these to meet the needs of real customers in their
businesses and organisations.
You will learn good team-working skills which are often as important
as your technical skills; real-world projects are usually too big for
one person.
In the final year you will work on your own personal project where
you might create applications involving the integration of multimedia
components, web 2.0 technologies, pervasive systems, hand-held gaming
and much more.
