Pre-Master in Computing, Engineering and Technology Leading to Master of Science in Cyber Security

Program Overview

A postgraduate pathway is a single course comprising two stages of study; Pre-Master’s and Master’s. When you successfully complete the full pathway you will be awarded a Master’s degree from Anglia Ruskin University College

Advantage of Anglia Ruskin University College Postgraduate Pathway

The postgraduate pathway is designed for students from a variety of backgrounds who:

  • Require additional English language training
  • Come from a different academic environment to that of the UK
  • Have been away from studies for a period of time
  • Are looking to fine-tune skills already gained during undergraduate studies, employment or both

If you fall into any of the above categories, choosing the postgraduate pathway at Anglia Ruskin University College is the right decision.

The Pre-Master’s pathway will prepare you for future postgraduate studies by giving you confidence and expertise in areas relevant to your taught Master’s degree. You will:

  • Develop your fundamental knowledge and understanding of the basic principles relevant to your chosen degree
  • Develop basic numerical techniques, research methodologies and ICT, presentation and communication skills
  • Gain a competent set of transferable skills that will help you in your academic studies and future career, and enable you to make informed decisions
  • Attain the necessary level of language competence specific to your chosen field of study.

Pre-Master's (Stage 1)

The Pre-Master’s course is Stage 1 of the postgraduate pathway, it has been designed to prepare students who have not qualified for direct entry to Anglia Ruskin University College Master’s degrees, for postgraduate level studies.

Undertaking a Pre-Master’s course will provide you with the time to adjust to the rigorous research and independent study requirements of postgraduate studies and prepare you to get the most out of your postgraduate study at Anglia Ruskin University College.

Master's (Stage 2)

The Master’s (Stage 2) offers students the chance to build on what they have learned during the Pre-Master’s and extend their professional understanding about their relevant area of study. A taught Master’s degree usually consists of a series of specialist modules in structured class, seminar or tutorial formats. A research thesis component may be included, but is much shorter than what is required for a Master’s degree by research. However, most taught masters’ degrees will have a final major project or dissertation component. The Master’s (Stage 2) is delivered by Anglia Ruskin University College

MSC Cyber Security

  • Study in the Silicon Fen, known for its tech market and range of jobs in computer science industry – the perfect opportunity to connect with top employers.
  • Gain skills in a broad range of cyber security areas, including all aspects of cyber physical systems and associated security issues.
  • Learn about possible attacks and penetration testing scenarios, and how to mitigate them, though hands-on practical exercises.
  • We're a Cisco Networking Academy and EC-Council Academic Partner, covering industry needs and industry-specific certifications including ethical hacking, penetration testing, vulnerability assessment, risk management and cyber defence.

Cyber security is one of the top priorities for governments and organisations worldwide, yet there is a continuing global shortage of graduates with this skill set.

Focusing from the strategic, operational, and technical perspectives of security within an organisation, our MSc Cyber Security covers all aspects of Cyber Physical Systems including network and communication infrastructure, end devices, applications, systems, data and security concerns from all these aspects.

Study in our specialised lab in Cambridge and put yourself ahead of the game. As you learn how to apply your knowledge and skills hands-on, you will be able to fulfil cyber security roles across the sectors. Before starting the course, we strongly recommended that you have have fundamental knowledge of computer networks.
