Degree Programme Handbooks

Degree Programme Handbooks contain everything you need to know about studying for your degree. They cover everything from what modules you need to take, to what activities you can get involved in during your time here. They are in two parts.

Part One (155K Microsoft Word) contains information that is generic to all undergraduate and taught postgraduate degree programmes run by the School of Computing Science, and should be read by all students.

Part Two (follow the links below) contains information that is specific to your particular degree, and each degree has its own version. You should consult Part Two to find such details as what modules you must take and when. You can also find an outline of the aims and objectives and the skills you can expect to gain from following your degree programme.
