Curriculum
All our courses are designed around key principles based on engaging you with the world, collaborating with others, challenging you to think in new ways, and providing you with a supportive environment in which you can thrive.
Through hands-on experience, we introduce you to a broad range of computing topics including programming, web development, databases, study skills, and project management. You will undertake research in the field of computing to help build your knowledge of research approaches, designs, and techniques in preparation for the course dissertation project.
You can select and specialize in either:
- A system design and development project that encapsulates C#, ASP.NET framework, MVC architecture, and pattern-based software development to build advanced web application solutions
- An advanced data management project that includes R programming, Big Data and Distributed Systems (use of Hadoop Ecosystem), and Data Integration (includes Tableau) to build data management solutions
- Un projet basé sur le cloud qui explore le domaine en croissance rapide du cloud computing et couvre une gamme de modèles de déploiement, d'architectures logicielles (N-tier, MVC, orientées services), d'outils et de technologies (virtualisation, utilisation du framework web Django, DevOps, GitHub, Docker, microservices) et différents services cloud (par exemple Microsoft Azure) nécessaires à la conception et au développement d'applications évolutives
For industrial expertise, you will work as experts on a live project and present your results back to the organization.
Based on real-life case studies, project-based learning is core throughout the course. Alongside taught tutorials, you will develop knowledge and skills through individual study and group work as well.
You learn through:
- Recommended reading
- Problem-based learning
- Analysis and synthesis
- Individual and group activities
- Research
- Presentations
- Personal research and development project
- Technical development work
- Portfolio
This course is delivered face-to-face over three semesters - teaching is scheduled based on the length of your course and the academic calendar.
Applied learning
Work placements
You will have the opportunity to go on a work placement for up to 12 months.
Students from this course have had work placements with companies such as 3Squared, XLN, Next Retail Ltd, EDF Energy, Wandisco, and DB Cargo. These placements allow students to put into practice the skills they have developed on the course.
Live projects
This course allows you to develop practical computing skills by working on live projects for real clients or emulated industry case studies.
Working in a small team, you will develop industrial-strength solutions to complex industry problems. You will have the opportunity to investigate client requirements, design appropriate solutions, and then implement these as well as test them to ensure they are fit for purpose.
Networking opportunities
The teaching team makes use of their research and industry connections for the inclusion of real work scenarios and case studies within the teaching materials of many of the modules.
Modules
