As well as learning how computers work, you will get an understanding of the technology behind
things like computer games, mobile phones, the Internet and many other computing-based products that
surround us |
| |
 |
Computing involves a lot of practical work, so you will have the opportunity to spend
plenty of time in the labs learning useful skills that can be applied anywhere in the
world. |
| |
 |
Great career opportunities are still available to qualified graduates across a wide range
of industries. Computing graduates work not only in the IT sector, but wherever computing
technology is used, and that is in every sector of the economy. |
| |
 |
Now is the perfect time to begin studying for a computing degree. Industry and government
experts predict a significant skills shortage in the IT sector in the years to come. There
are now fewer people entering computing-related college courses, meaning that by the time you
graduate, there will be even better opportunities available to graduates in an expanding IT
industry. |
