      In Depth

      What will I study?

      In Year 1 you will study a coherent set of business and computing modules which provide a solid foundation for the second and third years of study. The range of subjects has been identified through consultation with employers as being essential for graduates. You will cover the foundations of business and accountancy while gaining core computing skills in information systems, networking, programming and web design. Part of your first year studies will look at career options in a wide variety of industries.

      Year 2 provides a range of modules which enable you to focus on areas of computing and business. There is also a dedicated module focused on enhancing your employability and developing essential skills for the workplace. On completion of the second year you have the option of undertaking a 12-month industrial placement or year abroad before beginning your third year.

      Year 3 provides opportunities to develop advanced knowledge and skills. You will have the opportunity to explore topics such as forensic computing, strategic management, IT management and internet security. You will also complete a research and development project which may take either of two forms: the creation of a piece of software or hardware, or a research project. The emphasis at this level is on the development of independent study and learning.

      How will I study?

      Many classes will be based in computer workshops and will focus on student activity as a means of learning. We introduce theoretical concepts by building on practical activity. As well as preparing for and attending lectures, seminars, tutorials and workshops, you will spend time reading and completing coursework, including written assignments, portfolios, presentations and poster production.

      Working with business is a strong theme of the degree and you will have the opportunity to develop your employability profile through a work placement or participation in a graduate enterprise project. This will enable you to develop essential people skills to complement your technical ability.

      How will I be assessed?

      Assessments are varied and designed to ensure you acquire a range of skills, particularly those required by future employers. You will design and write programs, write reports and essays, critically analyse documents, deliver oral presentations and undertake examinations. We want you to develop an ability to work independently and as part of a team.

      Who will be teaching me?

      You will be taught by staff who are passionate about student learning and development. The programme team are specialists in computing, information systems, accountancy, human resource management, e-commerce and small and medium sized enterprises, among others.  The team includes active researchers who publish in academic journals.

We introduce theoretical concepts by building on concrete practical activity. Sessions are highly interactive, with practical application of concepts a key factor, as well as cases drawn from real-life. Workshops, seminars, group tutorials, supervised support sessions and practical exercises provide opportunities for you to work with your peers and develop the essential people skills to complement your technical ability. Studying on a full-time basis, you will be required to attend a mix of online and face-to-face sessions for up to four days a week. You will be assessed through a combination of practical exercises, coursework, portfolios, reports, essays, presentations, or examinations. We want you to develop the ability to work effectively both independently and as part of a team, therefore assessment includes some small group activities, though the emphasis is strongly on individual work.
