Degree Overview

With this growing trend there is a high demand for accomplished engineers who can design, develop and maintain networked hardware and software. This course focuses on key aspects of networks, computer systems and application development which will extend to database systems and human-computer interaction.

This course will allow you to develop an understanding of the design and evaluation of network systems hardware and software. During your studies you will develop an understanding of the concepts and principles of network operation, including the storage, retrieval and analysis of data.

In year three you will develop the ability to specify the hardware and software required for networked services in a structured and systematic manner.

Finally, you will learn to apply the concepts and principles of networks and network services to the development and delivery of networked applications in year four.
