Code, systems, and software engineering on campus
Online or on campus
This honours programme equips you to design, build, and evaluate software systems used in industry and research. You will study programming paradigms, data structures, databases, computer networks, and human-computer interaction in purpose-built labs on the Edinburgh campus. Team projects mirror agile delivery cycles, and you will maintain a portfolio reviewed by faculty each year. Optional modules cover artificial intelligence, cloud computing, and secure coding practices.
Final-year students may contribute to open-source projects maintained by Brigant research groups or complete an industry placement.
