The integration of computers, communications and electronics is now being realised. Their use will profoundly affect the way in which we learn, work and use our leisure time. Distance learning, home employment, remote manufacturing and tele-surgery are but a few of the opportunities offered by the information superhighway and its multimedia infrastructure.
This programme aims to introduce you to the most important aspects of networked applications, databases, servers, legal issues, security issues, and cryptography. Graduates will be equipped for a wide variety of employment in the computing industry and wider fields such as commerce and banking. The programme will also give you the knowledge and experience to continue studying for a PhD, or to enter a career in research.
