Details about course variation options.

UCAS code - I401

This four-year variant includes a paid placement in business or industry for the duration of your third year, working on a substantial project and gaining first-hand experience of the practical application of computer science. The placement gives you the opportunity to put into practice some of the things you will have learned in the first two years and to enter your final year with the insights from your practical experience in the field.

An industrial placement gives you a proven employment track record and additional confidence when searching for your first graduate position - both should help to make you highly attractive to employers and the placement companies often offer employment after graduation.

A full year's work placement, undertaken as part of your course. Your degree takes an extra year to complete, and the words 'with Industrial Placement' appear in your degree title for future employers to see.
