Program Description

Designed specifically for graduates from non-computing disciplines, the MSc in Computer Science is a conversion course, with a broad focus on the core competencies and knowledge required for a career in the design and management of information systems.With a September start date, this course is studied full-time over one year. Should you wish for more flexibility with your studies, we also offer 100% online part-time Computer Science programmes, with routes in Data Analytics and Artificial Intelligence (AI).During the first part of the programme, you will study eight core taught modules (120 credits) over the first two semesters. These modules provide you with a solid knowledge of the underlying principles and concepts of Internet technologies, web-based applications, and enterprise and data analytics systems. They will also develop and extend the practical skills that are necessary for the designing, building, deployment and evaluation of distributed information systems and enterprise applications over the Internet.The second part of the programme gives you freedom to choose between either a ‘traditional’ formal academic project supervised by an academic expert from the School or opt for an industry placement. You’ll be able to discuss with your academic supervisor which type of project or placement is most suitable, based on your performance during the taught modules. Both options will enable you to put in to practice and apply the skills and knowledge learned throughout the course.To achieve the MSc, you must complete 180 credits. There are two interim awards available, depending on how many modules have been successfully completed: a Postgraduate Certificate for any two modules (60 credits); and a Postgraduate Diploma for all four taught modules (120 credits).
