Internet Computing MSc

The internet has changed the way we use computers, and it is still changing. This programme will develop expertise in key technologies and shape the internet of the future, including security, computational intelligence and cloud computing. 

 

The programme is expected to help alleviate skills shortages within the UK and overseas in the area of well-trained internet professionals with solid foundations in the key disciplines required. 

 

Graduates of the programme will have an in-depth understanding of the key principles of internet computing, including enabling software systems and security, together with the ability to critically evaluate software systems and tools related to internet technology. 

 

The programme benefits directly from the research expertise of the Department, especially from the extensive activities in computational intelligence, distributed systems and information security. 

 

The programme has been designed to produce graduates who will assume responsibility for the planning, design and implementation of internetbased information systems as high-calibre systems analysts, technical managers or consultants.
