Programme Structure

Year 3 (FHEQ Level 6)

During Year 3, you will undertake an individual project that contributes approximately one third of the marks for the year, together with a range of optional modules. The project gives you the freedom, and is your opportunity, to explore a topic of your choice in greater depth.

It may build on an interest that was awakened during your Professional Training year or during another part of your degree programme. It is also your chance to get involved in some of the cutting-edge research that we undertake in the Department.

Modules in Year 3 reflect recent advances in computer science and are influenced by the Department’s research interests. These are particularly intellectually stimulating for our students. Modules are continually kept up-to-date to meet emerging industrial challenges.

During Year 3, students also have the opportunity to get involved in career preparation workshops.
