Computer Science MSc
Our Computer Science MSc is responsive to emerging technologies and is led by industry.

Our close ties with industry, including guest lecturers and visits to tech companies provide plenty of networking opportunities, and live briefs give you real-world experience. You will be based in one of the most important cities in the UK for digital technology businesses and are also encouraged to attend local computing and digital media events, giving you opportunities to exchange ideas and build your technical and professional skills.
You’ll have access to our specialist facilities for hands-on learning, including CISCO-certified networking and cyber security lab, usability lab, games studio, VR suite and robotics and autonomous systems lab.
