Modules

This course has a common first year. The common first year enables you to work alongside students doing similar courses to you, to widen your knowledge and exposure to other subject areas and professions. You will have the opportunity to collaborate with other students, so you can share your insights and experience which will help you to develop and learn. If you discover an interest in a specific subject you have studied, upon successful completion of your first year, you could swap degrees with another course in your common first year (subject to meeting progression requirements). Common first year courses: Computer Science MSc/BSci (Hons) Computer Science with Artificial Intelligence MSc/BSci (Hons) Interactive Media and Web Technologies BSc (Hons) Software Engineering BSc (Hons) In your first year, you’ll be taught the fundamental skills and concepts needed to begin your journey as a computer scientist or information technology manager. You’ll explore the mathematical and technical foundations of computing, and you’ll apply those principles in regular laboratory sessions which help solidify your understanding. You’ll also begin developing the professional skills you’ll need in your day-to-day career on graduation: working as part of a team, the ethical and legal issues around data systems, and software unit testing. Modules: Programming: Concepts and Algorithms Computer Systems Working with Data Mathematical Skills for Computing Professionals Programming: Professional Practice Integrative Project Module Year Two In your second year, you’ll build on the skills developed in year one and explore topics such as data science for business, operational research and simulation, ITIL and further explore how these can be applied within an organisational context. Modules Data Science for Business Web Development and Management Operational Research and Simulation Digital Marketing Business Environment and MIS IT Infrastructure Library (ITL) and Service Management Placement Year There’s no better way to find out what you love doing than trying it out for yourself, which is why a work placement* can often be beneficial. Work placements usually occur between your second and final year of study. They’re a great way to help you explore your potential career path and gain valuable work experience, whilst developing transferable skills for the future. If you choose to do a work placement year, you will pay a reduced tuition fee* of £1250. For more information, please go to the fees and funding section. During this time, you will receive guidance from your employer or partner institution, along with your assigned academic mentor who will ensure you have the support you need to complete your placement. Final Year The final stage builds on the advanced topics which were introduced in stage two, while allowing you to decide for yourself which areas you wish to specialise in as you finish your degree. In addition, this year includes your major project, where you bring everything you have learned to bear upon a specific challenge related to information technology management and devise your own solution.
