Web Applications and Services MSc with Industry

The evolution of web-based technologies has now led to what is known as 'Web 2.0': a semantically enriched information source with advanced potential to provide specialised software applications 'on the fly'. A plethora of standard PC-based applications is now appearing online (calendar and diary tools, text editors, and spreadsheets, among others) that can be used in a distributed collaborative setting. Developing such applications is particularly challenging, partly due to the wide background required but also the rapid emergence of new technologies. This MSc will equip you with a sound understanding of the area and its emerging trends, while at the same time providing a very hands-on approach to current technologies.

Duration
The regular degree takes 12 months if you start in October, or 16 months if you start in January
The 'With Industry' degree takes 21 months if you start in October, or 24 months if you start in January
NB. If you start your course in January, you will take Semester 2 before Semester 1.

The PGDip includes the same modules as the MSc but without the final project.
