Course details
Modules
Year one Grasp the fundamentals. You'll start by learning core programming skills in languages such as C++/C#, HTML5 and JavaScript, while developing knowledge around discrete mathematics and how computer systems work. Modules on experience design and the computing industry provide an all-important primer in digital design, and help you position your learning within wider professional contexts. Year two Dive deeper. You'll extend your understanding of programming to object-oriented techniques, and learn methods of organising and manipulating data. Content on human-computer interaction takes a close look at how people use digital systems, while optional modules in responsive web design and data visualisation expose methods of presenting information effectively on a range of media platforms. Year three Showcase your talent. You'll leverage your computing and design skills to develop two extended computing projects – one made individually, and one co-created within our in-house Innovation Lab. These major projects are complemented with specialist modules in machine learning or physical computing – each of which adds flavour and flair to your portfolio and graduate skill set.
Assessment method
BSc (Hons) Computing is almost entirely coursework-assessed. You’ll deliver a varied and balanced collection of artefacts including prototype software, experiment collections, interfaces, interactive experiences, and design portfolios. Project work is supported by contextual essays, reflective commentaries, reports, tests, pitches and presentations.
