Computing

Computing draws on sound theory and careful reasoning to create working systems. This BEng studies how computer hardware and software are engineered, grounded in the mathematical principles that underpin the subject, and it shows how modern systems operate and how they can be adapted. A central core gives an overview of the discipline, and a wide choice of modules lets students follow their interests as they progress. Teaching combines lectures, laboratories and supervised project work. An individual project and an I-Explore module, which offers credit in a new subject area, complete the study. Graduates are prepared for roles in software engineering, systems design, research and technology leadership, where engineering judgement and a clear grasp of theory are both needed. Graduates value the blend of engineering and theory this degree provides.
