Bachelor of Science (Hons) in Computing for Business with Foundation Year

Program Overview

Our Computing for Business course teaches you how to apply emerging technology in a business environment. It covers core computing skills and specialised modules focusing on business intelligence - database systems, project management, analysis and design.

You'll have the opportunity to work on projects in the local community and further afield, applying your developing knowledge and providing practical solutions for real-life problems.

Whether you choose to continue with your studies or go straight into work, the course will equip you with the skills and expertise employers and investors are looking for.

Our Industrial Liaison Group maintains close links with industry and employers, ensuring our course reflects the latest developments in business practice and technological development.

The extended course is perfect if you want a degree in Computing for Business but you don't have the standard entry requirements. First we prepare you for your degree during an extra Foundation year, bringing you up to speed with academic skills and a firm grounding in the subject. Then you can go on to do the full undergraduate degree.

WHAT YOU'LL LEARN

The Computing for Business course is either three years full-time, four years with an optional one-year work placement or five years part-time. We're fully accredited by the British Computer Society, the chartered institute for IT, so our course will set you on the path to becoming a Chartered IT Professional (CITP).

In your first year, you'll cover core components of computing in business such as information systems modelling and design, programming, web technologies and network systems. Our practical approach to learning will ensure you get plenty of hands-on experience.

You'll also complete a year-long project of your choice in your final year, with the chance to work with others nationally and internationally.

There's also the option to undertake a year-long industrial placement after your second year, usually paid. We have long-standing links with many well-known employers who can offer you a worthwhile placement. Like many of our students, you could go on to gain permanent employment with your placement organisation.

We consistently review our courses to ensure we are up-to-date with industry changes and requirements from our graduates. As a result, our modules are subject to change.

YOUR FUTURE CAREER

IT skills really matter in today's business world, from small start-ups to huge multinational companies. There's a shortage of people with up-to-date skills and understanding, and organisations need these to fully realise their potential.

Our Computing for Business graduates combine business knowledge with technical ability. You'll be qualified for many different IT jobs including a systems/business/information analyst, a systems developer or integrator or a web applications developer. You could also progress quickly into management roles in the IT and information systems fields.

For graduates who want to continue their studies at postgraduate level, the Computing for Business undergraduate course provides a suitable entry route to a variety of master's courses, both at UEL and elsewhere.

Some of our graduates work with local businesses to develop their projects from the initial idea to a complete solution as full stack developers. We have graduates working with web technologies, making and developing apps, working on information analysis and supporting IT infrastructures.

The combination of theory and practical projects that you'll experience during your course will give you a head start when looking for a job. You'll have hands-on experience of using open source software such as PHP, MongoDB, MySQL and corporate software such as Oracle and SAS.
