Business Computing

Introduction:
80% student satisfaction (the most recent National Student Survey) Business in the 21st century is conducted in a way which was beyond imagining just 30 years ago. This is thanks partly to the constantly evolving internet, which has revolutionised almost every aspect of our working and social lives – and coupled with the new technologies and hardware that are now part of day-to-day life. In this course , you'll examine just how critical computers are to business. The emphasis is on organisations and how computers are used within them. In addition, you’ll study the basic skills of designing and building software systems. You’ll gain a broad base of skills by combining theory and practice – a skillset that resonates well with employers, whether in the software industry itself or in a wider and more strategic context, developing the use of IT in any business. We help our students to build a strong link with industry through 3-month summer placements and 1-year placements. Both of these are offered to third year students. Placement opportunities exists with local SME as well as large corporates. All our course modules use state-of-the-art computer equipment, giving you access to the very latest software technology. We’re a small, friendly team with an 'open doors' policy for students.
