If you’re a graduate from a non-computing discipline and have a keen interest in digital technologies and computing, our dynamic Master’s in Computing is specifically designed to help you broaden your knowledge of Computing Science. This course is only available for a January start. No prior knowledge or experience in computing is required, as the course begins by teaching you the fundamentals of Python programming, web development, and databases. You can then steer your learning, based on your own aspirations, towards more advanced specialised areas like cyber security and audio-visual processing.
On this programme, you’ll develop essential transferable skills in areas such as communication, critical thinking and reasoning, as well as problem-solving, technical writing, independent team working, and project management. You’ll learn about computing professionalism and ethics. You’ll also take part in an exciting group project over the summer, which will give you the chance to specialise in a specific topic of interest. The group project aims to further develop your skills in project management, team working, and presentation, which will be essential for your future career.
Our campus is located in the beautiful and historic city of Norwich. You’ll enjoy an active research environment, work with modern facilities and equipment, and have access to the state-of-the-art library at UEA.
In the first semester you’ll take modules to introduce you to programming, databases and web-development. These are key areas required for a wide range of careers in Computing Science. You’ll gain a clear understanding of one of the most popular programming languages, Python.
You’ll also be introduced to most aspects of database structures, manipulation, and management systems. You’ll gain practical experience of database manipulation through the use of SQL on a relational database management system. Moreover, you’ll learn database design using Entity-Relationship modelling and normalisation.
You’ll learn about the techniques for developing web-based applications. You’ll cover HTML, Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), JavaScript and Node.js, responsive website design model, usability and accessibility, current industry standard for backend server implementation, and some current issues, such as web security. On your coursework, you’ll develop a website for a real-world application.
During the summer you’ll consolidate your learning from the modules in the first semester via a group project.
Following the group project you’ll embark on further modules, some of which can be chosen depending on your interests. You can also deepen your knowledge in web development or broaden your skills by studying Cyber Security or techniques in Audio-Visual Processing.
