Department of Computing

Modern business increasingly depends on information systems. Industry and the public services need graduates able to develop reliable, sophisticated, complex, cost-effective and high-quality computer systems.

The Department of Computing courses cover the techniques and principles of computing that will allow you to become a professional in this high demand area. You will undertake practical work throughout the course and this is underpinned by theory to enable you to make informed choices and decisions.

The Department of Computing was one of the pioneers of Computing in higher education in the UK and we are continuing to offer a wide spread of courses at undergraduate and postgraduate level as well as undertaking research to take our subject into the future. 

Our former students have gone on to employment in a wide variety of industries, and some are now our industrial and research collaborators.
