Content

This general pathway provides a rounded education and broadly based computing qualification. The specialist pathways provide more focused routes for those who have clearly defined career aspirations or interests while still seeking to develop knowledge and skills in a range of computing disciplines. This course uses practical examples to reinforce your theoretical underpinning as well as utilising our state of the art computer facilities. All Computing students study common modules during Stage one, this allows greater flexibility when choosing a specialism for stages two and three.

You will learn software engineering methods as well as enhancing their problem solving skills. Additionally, you will investigate usable database implementation, system design to ensure that can be used by multiple users and on multiple platforms, as well as learning the background theory, including the practical implications of knowledge based systems, neural networks and evolutionary algorithms on the development of artificial intelligence systems.

During Stage one, you will study fundamental computing principles including computer systems, communications, problem solving and programming and internet technology. Within stages two and three students are able to specialise in a variety of areas within computing by following the specialist BSc (Hons) or BEng (Hons) pathways. Alternatively, you can continue to study a broad range of topics from a number of computing disciplines by following the general pathway. This allows you to maintain a wide array of employment options. Integral to this qualification is a challenging group project carried out during Stage two, as well as the individual research dissertation undertaken throughout Stage three.
