Course content

This full and part-time course includes placement experience when possible.

If you have previously studied computing at university or who are currently working in the sector, and looking to develop an advanced knowledge of the subject, this course is for you.

We teach modules which are a combination of computer networks theory, management and security. You'll also have the opportunity to work in a laboratory on security configuration for various systems.

What you will gain

You'll develop the knowledge and expertise to model, monitor and analyse networks in various situations, simulating performance and availability to configure them for optimum performance. In addition to this, you will also improve your mathematical, problem-solving, communication, and critical skills.

As well as in-depth knowledge and practical experience of computer communications and networking, our course will provide you with many transferable skills. It will improve your research, data collection and interpretation, mathematical, communication, problem-solving, presentation and critical skills, as well as your confidence and ability to work under your own initiative while managing your own time.

Other benefits you'll gain by joining us on this course include:

• The opportunity to gain practical experience in our industry-standard networking labs
• A chance to explore new concepts and developments — three of our previous students were crowned winners at the Young Professional Engineering Challenge.

Placements

Industrial placement is offered as an optional opportunity for full-time students studying at the London campus. Students can choose either a 3-month or 12-month placement duration.
