Program Overview

As an international student, you might need, or benefit from, a pathway course before you start to a degree. A pathway course is often necessary because of different education systems of UK and your home country.

The International Year One is the equivalent to the first year of study for an undergraduate degree offered by INTO Group. During the program you'll improve your academic and undergraduate research skills, as well as building your English language abilities. When you finish the program you'll be ready to progress to Year 2 of your degree. This means that you can complete your degree in the same amount of time as direct entry students.

International Year One in Accounting is a 3-Terms program offered by INTO Group. It prepares students for entry into the second year of a professionally-accredited undergraduate Accounting degree at Queen's University Belfast.

Software Engineering

Without software engineering, you wouldn’t be reading this page. Software innovation has transformed the way we think about, and interact with, technology. In fact, all the forms of communication, interaction and access that we take for granted today are made possible by software in some shape or form. Which is why the demand for software engineers has never been greater
.
From improving the efficiency of the apps we use in order to make them more sustainable, to developing scalable and secure app infrastructure, Software Engineers have skills that drive innovation. In essence, they are problem solvers with the ability to take an existing software system and creatively refine, enhance and transform it into something even better.

This degree programme is designed to equip you with the analytical, reasoning and practical skills you will need to design, develop and deploy large software systems. Plus, our project based learning approach enables you to craft a degree pathway that fits your own areas of interest. You could find yourself working on anything from apps to virtual and augmented reality; lifesaving smart medical implants to consumer space travel or automated intelligence.

Employer experience is embedded into this course and allows students to engage and learn from prospective employers from day one. Through placements, sponsored projects and hackathons, you will engage with employers and begin making a difference to real world problems.
