This MSc focuses on advanced study in the development of intelligent technologies on the web, covering web services, software agents, and technologies associated with the semantic web.

This programme provides you with an understanding of the relevant standards and technologies such as XML, XSLT, RDF, RDFS, DAML+OIL, OWL, and the database technologies appropriate for the storage and retrieval of both XML and RDF. You will learn about the tools needed for working with web ontology languages, such as OWL, for analysing intelligent web technologies and supporting the semantic web. You will also gain practical experience with the relevant programming frameworks and APIs (XSLT, DOM, SAX, and Jena). You will be able to apply this knowledge in your project work, developing your own intelligent web system.

The programme is aimed at preparing you both for research study and for specialist employment in a wide range of public and private sectors in web technologies. Typical jobs after graduation include web developer, web master, web architect, e-commerce programmer, portal developer, or mobile services developer.
