Programme Structure
Year 1 (FHEQ
Level 4)
Year 1
offers a broad base, with much of the content common across the three
programmes. By the end of Year 1, our aim is that you will have developed good
practical skills and be proficient in the programming language Java, using
industry-standard tools.
You will have a broad base from which to build during subsequent levels. We will also develop your understanding of the foundations of computing and the design and analysis of computational systems.
Developing professional awareness is incorporated from the beginning of your studies with the inclusion of lecturers from industry. You will be introduced to topics specific to your specialist pathway.
During Year 1, you will also participate in CV workshops and receive support in order to prepare for internships and placements.
