Course Description

Networks are a vital part of systems infrastructure, and fundamental to businesses, society, and industry. Specialise in networking as part of this Computer Science degree.

This degree in Computer Science specialising in networking provides a firm grasp of the science underpinning computer and software systems. The modules you can study as part of this degree include Advanced Networks. Computer and Communication Systems and Enterprise Server Management.

You will gain practical experience of developing systems using the latest technologies and techniques, as well as exposure to the latest trends that will shape the future of computer science. By the end of the course, you will be equipped to work independently and to develop and adapt your skills throughout your future career.

What you should know about this course

  • On this degree, you will learn the principles, applications, and the scope of current and future networks and gain the skills to critically analyse and evaluate network systems.
  • You'll develop the knowledge and skills to design, implement, and maintain network infrastructures - ideal for careers in your chosen area.
  • The University of Greenwich has a long-standing relationship with the British Computer Society (BCS), which accredits our computing degree programmes. As this programme was extensively updated in 2019, it has a current designation of Initial Full Chartered Information Technology Professional (CITP) and Partial Chartered Engineer (CEng) accreditation for the 2019 intake. The accreditation status is expected to be confirmed in autumn 2022 after the first cohort of students graduate.

Students will be kept updated on the status of this, in the very unlikely event that this does not progress as expected the university will support students with individual BCS membership applications at the point of graduation.

On this course, students are assessed by take-home exams, coursework and practice assessments on campus where required. Each course has formal assessments which count towards your grade. Some courses may also include 'practice' assessments, which help you monitor progress and do not count towards your final grade.
