Students who wish to finish their studies at the end of the first or second year will be eligible for a Certificate or Diploma of Higher Education in Computer Studies. We realise that the traditional lecture is not always the best way to present material. We pride ourselves in our range of teaching and learning methods which are used on all our courses. Student centred learning is emphasised which gives students some share of the responsibility for their own learning. In order that students are well prepared for the work environment we use realistic environments for student work involving case studies, group work and mini projects.
Assessments are also varied in order to match the skills being assessed.
This may include traditional or new styles of exams, coursework, project reports, presentations, peer and self assessment. Professional Bodies Membership of the professional bodies is strongly recommended to boost career progression prospects and to assist in keeping abreast of technology changes in the field of computing. Successful Honours Graduates will be exempt from the Part II examinations of the British Computer Society. Those awarded the Dip HE or Unclassified degree are eligible for exemption from part I of the British Computer Society examinations.
