What I would highlight: The classes are good, and all the teachers are used to having international students. I've not yet had a problem.If you're not used to the UK style of assessment, it's a shock. One essay and one test decides your entire grade- a bit nerve racking! It's a small uni- so don't expect it to have the same access to resources
What could be improved: Nothing.
Would you recommend this course?: Yes

Course programme

Year 1

You will take a course that emphasises the principles of programming and a course on computing fundamentals.

Year 2

You will study Java programming, object-oriented software engineering, data structures and algorithms, algorithmic foundations, computer systems and web application development.

You will also study other subjects in years 1 and 2: see Degrees in Arts, Life Sciences, Science and Social Sciences.

Years 3, 4 and 5

If you progress to Honours (years 3 and 4), you will study courses which present a practical, design-oriented approach to computing. These courses cover software engineering itself and related topics such as databases, software project management and real-time systems. You will also take a particular set of courses in your final year.

Practical work is an essential part of the degree programme and in third year you will take part in a software engineering team project.

You will have a 10-week, paid industrial internship at a technology company at the end of year 3. This placement provides key insights into professional software development, allowing you to apply your skills in the real world.

Fourth-year individual projects have a software engineering focus. These practical projects carry considerable weight in the final assessment.

Software Engineering can be taken as an MSci, which includes an additional year.

Faster route

If you have exceptional grades it is possible to follow a faster route, which allows you to complete a standard BSc (Hons) or MSci degree in one year less than usual, by being exempted from most of the first-year computing science material.

Our international links

You will have the opportunity to apply to study abroad. There are currently two options available: the Erasmus+ Programme and the International Exchange Programme. See Study abroad.
