Program Description
Web and mobile application development have become key areas of growth in the technology industry, and are essential employability skills for a computer science graduate. Our Computer Science (Web and App Development) BSc will enable you to gain a sound academic grounding in the discipline of Computer Science, an understanding of the professional issues relevant to your future working life, the underpinning theory and practical skills directly relevant to web development in industry.COURSE STRUCTURE
In your first year you will explore the fundamental concepts and techniques for object-oriented programming. From interaction design to computer animation and multimedia, our modules are designed to bring everyone up to speed, regardless of the starting level of coding experience, and to provide a gentle introduction to the skills required for effective academic study.Year two will focus on learning advanced programming concepts that can be applied in areas such as games programming, mobile app and web development, artificial intelligence and cyber security. You will also explore the human aspect of Computer Science, thanks to the focus on user interaction and user interface design, software engineering methodologies (SCRUM, Agile) and cutting edge research in AI and machine learning.
Your final year will culminate with the opportunity to deep dive into research focused modules relating to the specialist area of Web and App Development. You will gain a practical understanding of the development lifecycle for web and mobile applications and cover areas such as:
- Human Computer Interaction (HCI) and user-centred design principles
- Mobile app development for a range of devices and platforms including Android
- Implementation of secure, distributed multi-tier web applications using current and emerging technologies
- Comprehensive testing and evaluation using industry-standard methods
GAIN EXPERIENCE IN INDUSTRY
From a year working in industry to paid internships, summer research projects and practical modules, there are many opportunities embedded throughout the curriculum to develop and enhance your practical skills. Paid or voluntary experience in your area of interest will not only demonstrate your commitment and passion, but will also enable you to make meaningful connections by networking with experts in the field.STUDY ABROAD
Studying abroad is an exciting opportunity to experience and appreciate different cultural perspectives and to establish international networks. It demonstrates your ability to embrace new experiences and enables you to immerse yourself in another culture whilst developing your independence and cultural awareness. We offer exchange opportunities with a wide variety of partner institutions.SUPPORT
We offer a robust multi layered student support structure to help you meet your academic and personal needs. You will benefit from the guidance of an academic mentor and access to Keele's Student Experience and Support team. Our open-door policy enables you to engage with your lecturers directly, meaning you can seek support, gain feedback, or discuss any matters relating to your studies on a regular basis. In addition to this, experienced students and doctoral researchers usually run help-desk sessions to help with the use and configuration of software especially when exam and coursework deadlines get closer.SOCIETIES
We have a wealth of student-led societies which cover a diverse range of interests. Joining a society related to Computer Science is a great opportunity to continue to develop your computing, web design or multimedia skills away from your studies. This is another excellent way of demonstrating your genuine interest for the area and can be beneficial when it comes to applying for graduate roles.It’s also a great way to meet like-minded people, make friends and share interests with fellow students. You may choose to participate in exciting hackathons and competitive programming challenges in the student-led HACK Keele Society, join the talks and activities organised by the Keele BCS Student Chapter or engage in competitive gaming with the Keele Esports Society.
