Study Details: MSc 1 year full-time
The Computer Science Masters/MSc degree course is for students who have a first degree in a subject other than computing. Established in 1969, it is now the longest-running conversion programme to computing in the UK.
Our Computer Science Masters/MSc programme is different to IT programmes, in that it is a technical degree with a significant programming component. It is designed to give you a grounding in both the fundamentals of computer science and practical software development skills through a series of compulsory modules. Students from all backgrounds are welcome to apply. Competency should be demonstrated in mathematics and scientific subjects, for example at 'advanced' high school level, which should allow understanding of the new Computer Science subjects.
The core components of this degree course are a software workshop, taught modules and a summer project. The software workshop involves two terms of intensive training in programming, and you will also have lectures, supervised laboratory work and small-group tutorials.
2:1 Honours degree in any subject other than computing. Students who have not studied in English must pass a recognised English test.
