Job Opportunities

This course is designed for those who wish to keep their options as to which part of the IT industry they want to specialize in as open as possible. It contains both the core elements of computer science and option modules to specialize in areas including Software Development, Internet and Cloud Applications, Network Administration and Technical Support. As the industry is so fast moving it is imperative that modules in the course are up to date and align with the requirements of industry whilst also providing generic professional skills such as working in cross-discipline teams, working to deadlines and under pressure and presenting information clearly both in written and spoken form.

Teamwork, business requirements, project life cycles, report writing, meeting deadlines and task planning are found in several modules including “Fundamentals of Design”, “Introduction to Programming” and “Software Engineering” and often go on to be applied by students in their final dissertation. Most modules also make use of real-life case studies where students can develop these skills.

Additionally, students can work towards a valuable industry recognized qualification, Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNA).
