Database Design and Development<\/h3>
\n

The purpose of this module is to apply the principles of database integrity in the design and development of database structures. This is a practical module that applies data modelling techniques to establish, modify and maintain database integrity, structures and associated components such as entities, relationships and attribute definitions.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Web Development<\/h3>
\n

This purpose of this module is to give students an understanding of client side web technologies. This module provides students with: the essential knowledge and practical skills to design, develop and implement a Web site to contemmporary web standard.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Software Engineering Fundamentals<\/h3>
\n

The purpose of this module is to develop student’s experience with the multiple stages of software engineering life-cycles from initial need and requirements identification through to the design and implementation of code in order to develop confidence in the use of terminology and techniques for each of the stages.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Systems Design & Development<\/h3>
\n

This purpose of this module is to: extend and apply system design and development to large scale systems; explore building GUIs and exploit the resources offered by class libraries so that the idea of specifying general software components and implementing re-usable classes will become familiar.; provide a tools and skills set which the student will require when s\/he encounters larger design projects, in later software development domains.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

IT Project Management<\/h3>
\n

This purpose of this module is for students to absorb a considerable body of knowledge, which can then be reinforced by application of the theory. The module therefore employs a combination of theory and practice using real or simulated IT projects of diverse sizes. Content will be delivered by lecture and workshop sessions. Students? understanding of the theory will be tested by time-constrained assessment. Practical assignments will be based around a scenario (e.g. development of a database system requiring coordination of a diverse team comprising designers and programmers) and require students to work in groups, planning and controlling the project.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Modern Databases<\/h3>
\n

The purpose of this module is to study advanced\/latest database topics. The module focuses primarily on NoSQL databases (e.g., graph and document databases), from designing and creating to querying the databases<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Cyber Security and Applied Cryptography<\/h3>
\n

The purpose of this module is to build upon concepts and skills introduced in the first- and second-year modules and address the issues of effective Cybersecurity. Recognizing the rapidly growing in importance of this area, the module aims to provide the student with the necessary practical skills and theoretical understanding of the technologies used to secure communications and protect the privacy of users within an online environment.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Computing Dissertation<\/h3>
\n

The purpose of the project module is to: provide the opportunity for the student to undertake research and self-management of a Computing related problem that permits the integration of the main areas of study in the students chosen pathway specialism. The module also permits the development of higher order intellectual skills, a professional approach and appropriate personal qualities that are required for independent working in a research or development environment. It is considered important that the project should not merely be a direct application of existing knowledge but that it should also encompass, at least in part, the need to acquire and apply development techniques hitherto unknown to the student.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n
