• Course description
  Computing professionals need to be able to work in a very broad range of application domains, and at the same time cope with the narrow and extremely high-level demands associated with very complex projects. Throughout this programme you will be encouraged to recognise the tension between depth and breadth and develop skills to handle it.  As well as facing the challenge of applying skills gained in one application domain to another whilst at other times facing the challenge of handling narrow and specialist areas in considerable depth.
  
  Throughout the programme you will develop your ability to use computing abstractions, and apply them with rigour to deliver computing solutions.   By drawing on research and recent developments in computing you will gain awareness of current problems and develop systematic, original and creative intellectual skills in problem solution.
  
  As a graduate from this programme you will possess the technical skills and competencies to work in the field of modern software engineering. Depending on which topics you choose to study, the skills you will develop are those of software engineer, systems architect, systems analyst and designer. The programme will appeal to computing graduates and practitioners who wish to update their skills and broaden their understanding of modern computing.
  
  The research project will give you the opportunity to explore your particular area of interest in greater depth.  You will learn how to plan research projects, create and interpret computing knowledge and how to report on it to a professional standard.
