The extended degree programme provides a foundation year which acts as an introduction to a wide range of subjects, including computer networks, software engineering and multimedia design. During this year, you will be introduced to the basic principles of computer science and informatics. The programme consists of six modules, including a range of lectures, tutorials and labs. This programme will help enable you to develop the skills and knowledge that you need to enter our three-year degree programmes.
