**Summary**: This integrated master’s course covers all the essential material required by a computer science graduate. It is a four-year course with an optional placement year in industry between Years 2 and 3 – it combines study at bachelor’s level (BSc) with study at master’s level (MComp). **Course details**: You study a curriculum designed in conjunction with industry that will equip you with skills that are in great demand. You gain a sound, in-depth grasp of core areas in computer science and undertake a major independent project. You can specialise in cutting-edge areas that include Artificial Intelligence and Complex Systems, Advanced Cloud-based Services and Big Data. This course prepares you for a wide range of careers in varied industries including software development, financial services, management and games companies. We have well-equipped state-of-the-art computing laboratories and facilities, including specialised equipment that you can use to undertake development projects and build innovative prototypes. For optional placements, our students have been placed in organisations such as IBM, Microsoft, SABIC Petrochemicals and Thomson Reuters. **After the course**: Our computing students go into a wide range of careers, both nationally and globally. Graduates have gone on to work in the power industry, avionics and the pharmaceutical industry. Having a master’s level qualification will give you a significant advantage in the employment market for computer scientists. Recent graduates have found employment with top firms including IBM, Amazon, Schlumberger, Ordnance Survey, Codemasters and Npower.

You attend a combination of lectures and practical sessions for each module. Lectures concentrate on teaching the principles while practical sessions allow you to put these principles into practice in purpose built labs. Throughout your practical sessions you receive feedback on your work and progress. You often work on a piece of work for several weeks building a deeper understanding of the subject as you work. The feedback you receive will help you to get the most out of your learning. In your final year you also undertake a personal project which integrates much of the work you have studied in previous years. A variety of assessment methods are used. Your assessments are designed to build on the work you undertake in class, because your learning continues through the assessment period. An in-course assessment often consists of a practical exercise and an associated report helping you to develop both technical and business skills.
