Internet and Distributed Systems focuses on the development of applications and management of data in a distributed environment, especially on the design and build of scalable and secure internet applications, and re-usable software components. The course emphasises practical issues and current technologies for the development of internet and distributed systems, and also provides students with an opportunity to conduct in-depth research into a specific issue and/or problem in this area of computing.
Both full-time and part-time modes of study are available. The full-time route is designed to enable graduates with a good computing degree to advance their knowledge and skills. Full-time students start their course at the beginning of the academic year (September/October), or in February at the beginning of semester 2.
The part-time route is specifically designed for computing professionals wishing to update or extend their skills in a study pattern suited to their work commitments. Individual modules can also be studied by IT professionals on a standalone basis for continuing professional development.
Career and progression opportunities
Graduates take up positions such as senior software engineers, senior web developers, systems designers, database developers, and systems architects.
