Course Overview

The course has been designed to provide the students with practical experience with models, techniques, and tools from the forefront of the discipline that drives innovation in the design of software-based systems within this domain. The key topics taught on the course include object-oriented programming (using the programming language in demand in the industry), interaction design (techniques for user-centered design), semantic web (next generation of the Web), web application development, and big data management (big data management techniques through practice-based activities associated with real-world issues). The students will also learn the key skills of research, academic writing, and project management required for study at the master's level. These skills are further developed and placed in the context of the dissertation.

The philosophy of the course is to promote lifelong self-learning by providing a curriculum that promotes a variety of approaches to study. The curriculum is designed to develop not only the academic knowledge but also the engineering ethos and practical skills required by the modern Computer Science professional. On the programme, academic members of staff within the School of Computing and Digital Technology will teach topics and supervise projects according to their personal research interests. This gives students a cutting-edge experience, one that opens up new opportunities for career advancement in the industry. For students who show an aptitude for research, there is also the possibility of continuing their studies on a Ph.D. programme.
