Our postgraduate Computing (Software Engineering) course allows you to study the design of software systems at a greater depth, develop your research and analytical skills and complete an individual thesis investigating an area you are particularly interested in.

Course Details

Today’s society needs software that communicates effectively with a number of devices, and so there is a need for qualified and skilled professionals who can design, develop and analyse software to improve our current provision. Our MSc in Software Engineering will equip you with this expertise. While this pathway is mostly technical in focus, you will also learn about the business context and develop interpersonal skills that are vital to problem solving in business.

HOW WILL I BE TAUGHT ON COMPUTING (SOFTWARE ENGINEERING) MSC?

Theoretical lectures and seminars are reinforced by practical examples and case studies, using computer simulation tools and laboratory facilities.

WHAT IS THE SCHEDULE?

We have developed this course to be studied around other commitments and you may only need to attend the university for two days per week.

ARE THERE ANY SPECIALIST FACILITIES?

You will have access to approximately 150 PC and Linux workstation computers housed in six bespoke computer laboratories, all with digital projection facilities, and maintained by two technicians.
