Bsc (Hons) CSSE (TOP-UP)

Computer Science & Software Engineering is at the core of modern technology and at the heart of a number of specialist technology fields. B.Sc Computer Science & Software Engineering course is aimed at providing a foundation as well as a platform for specialist study in the second and third stages, during which you will learn in depth, the principles and practices of both disciplines computer science and software engineering.
The disciplines of B.Sc Computer Science and Software Engineering are central to many of today’s commercial and industrial activities, as well as providing a diverse and rapidly developing field for personal study. This course is designed to enable you to analyze and build a range of applications. Emphasis is on the entire software development lifecycle, and the production of high-quality software systems using object-oriented (OO) methods and tools. You’ll explore the entire systems development life-cycle, as well as comprehensively covering OO methods.
The final-stage project enables you to take your specialist work to greater depth, leading to the possibility of future research. The emphasis of the course is to provide vocationally skilled programmers and software engineers who have both a general overview of computer science and software engineering, with a more detailed knowledge of fields like internet programming, database applications, artificial intelligence applications or networking.

• Learn about the entire software development life cycle and the production of high-quality systems using object-oriented methods.
• Study with committed, like-minded students in dedicated laboratories and classrooms
• Develop your professionalism as you choose the career path you wish to take
• Gain detailed knowledge of areas such as Internet programming, database applications, artificial intelligence and networking.
• Challenge yourself with a final stage project which will enable you to study your specialism in greater depth
• Benefit from teaching by staff who have a strong academic research backgrounds and are also actively engaged in knowledge transfer

• Broadly based yet enough depth (programming skills, testing skills etc.) so as to give you credible vocational skills in both Computer Science and Software Engineering.
• Coverage of the entire Software Engineering life cycle and comprehensive skills in applied programming and in applied Computer science topics.
• Taught by staff with both a strong academic research background who’re also actively engaged in knowledge transfer (e.g. to local SME’s), and who are at the forefront of their field.
• Emphasis on the life cycle but also in depth skills such as programming and analysis.
