Modules

Year 1 Start your journey at the cutting edge of technology. In your first year, you’ll dive into the core principles of computer science—learning to code, solve problems algorithmically, and master the maths that powers modern computing. From day one, it’s hands-on: you’ll design databases, explore how operating systems work under the hood, and start thinking like a developer. Our industry-aligned curriculum sets you up for success, with practical workshops and early preparation to set you up for specialisation. Year 2 In your second year, you’ll move beyond the fundamentals and start building intelligent systems that solve meaningful problems. You’ll refine your coding and software engineering skills, learn to manage and retrieve complex information, and dive deep into core AI concepts - from search and logic to intelligent agents. Working in a collaborative group project, you’ll apply your knowledge to real scenarios, designing systems that think, learn, and adapt. With a range of optional modules - including security, software tools, and game development - you can tailor your learning to your interests and career goals. Optional placement year Step into the real world and put your skills to the test. During this 48-week industry placement, you’ll gain invaluable experience in a professional environment - applying everything you’ve learned so far to real projects, real teams, and real challenges. Supported by our strong network of industry partners and dedicated placement team, you’ll build confidence, sharpen your technical and professional skills, and grow a network of contacts that can open doors after graduation. It’s your opportunity to stand out, gain a competitive edge, and graduate with more than just a degree - graduate with experience. Final year Your final year is where you transform from student to AI specialist. You’ll master machine learning, explore how humans and robots interact, and apply your expertise in a major year-long project that solves a real-world challenge. Choose optional modules in cutting-edge areas such as big data analysis, full-stack development, usability, or parallel computing. Whether you want to design smart assistants, build AI for healthcare, or engineer systems that see and respond to the world - you’ll graduate with a portfolio, experience, and confidence to lead in the AI revolution.
