Course programme

The first year (the foundation year) of this programme provides a strong platform in fundamentals of computing, programming, study skills and essential mathematics. Following successful completion of this year, students have the opportunity to transfer to the first year of any of the degree programmes offered by the School of Computing Sciences, subject to performance.

The foundation year can be regarded as a preparatory year for the standard computing programmes and aims to achieve several objectives:

  • Give an understanding of what computer systems and software development is about
  • Give a practical introduction to programming in a high-level language
  • Raise mathematics to a standard that will enable confident progression to what is effectively the first year of another computing programme
  • Develop study skills through a small group project that will involve research writing and organisational and presentational skills
  • Give an introduction to the essentials of computing for business.
