Course summary

Prepare for a leading role in the IT industry with our MEng Computer Science/Software Engineering. With in-depth knowledge and real-world experience during your year in industry, you’ll be ready to launch your career in our ever-evolving digital world. Our course will develop your technical understanding of building large software systems, and also your management and teamwork skills. A flexible approach means you can choose to go deeper into topics that will get you the graduate role you want. Spend a year working in industry to test-drive career options. This undergraduate programme is fully accredited by the British Computer Society (BCS). Explore the principles of programming, algorithms and AI, and learn professional software engineering techniques. You’ll be able to adapt to the demands of a fast-paced industry. Choose a project with a major software or research element and specialise in fields such as computer security, human-computer interaction, theoretical computer science, robotics or natural computation. Combining lectures and labs, you’ll develop analytical and practical problem-solving skills ready for exciting graduate roles. Your placement year will show you how to apply your knowledge, develop professional skills and build your networks. Your modules will be assessed independently through examinations, written assignments, oral and poster presentations, computer-based tests, marked exercises, and laboratory and project reports. You'll receive plenty of feedback to help you progress, ranging from written feedback on your assessments to class feedback sessions and discussions with your tutor. The feedback will highlight the positives of your work as well as any areas that need more attention. You'll be assigned a personal tutor who'll remain with you throughout your studies to help you in three important areas: supporting your academic progress, developing transferable skills and dealing with any welfare issues. You'll also need to undertake a considerable amount of self study. It's an essential part of the programme, which requires self motivation and enthusiasm for your subject. It also allows you to pursue your own lines of enquiry and become an independent thinker.
