Telecommunications - Internet Computing Pathway

The growth of the Internet has led to the emergence of new industries, services, and products that were unimaginable only a few years ago. With the rapid growth of the Internet has come the need for employees to have the special skills required to build, and deploy, industrial-strength Internet computing systems. Such employees are currently in very short supply.

The Internet Computing pathway is designed to equip students with the skills needed to succeed in the Internet computing industry. This programme is intended both for graduates in a related discipline, who wish to enhance and specialise their skills in the area, and also for industrialists with some experience of working in the information technology or telecommunications sectors, who wish to obtain a formal qualification.

Upon completing you will have gained advanced skills in the application and underlying theory of Internet computing technologies. Taught modules include the basic principles of digital networks, through modules that describe the software technologies that drive the Internet, to those that describe research-level technologies, techniques, and services.
