WHY COMPUTING

Computing and especially software is eating the world: the largest bookseller (Amazon), the largest video service (Netflix) the largest marketing & business intelligence company (Google) are all software companies1.

Computing includes the top 3 skills required to succeed in the future working environment: Complex Problem Solving, Critical Thinking and Creativity. It is also thought to be the top industrial sector for 2020, as claimed by the highly acclaimed World Economic Forum.2

The demand for computing professionals is high, greatly exceeding the supply. This has triggered initiatives such as the CodeWeek in Europe and the Hour of Code in the United States with the aim of encouraging more young students to take an interest in coding. Our staff have also launched the highly successful Code Cyprus initiative to promote the value of coding & computing in Cyprus.

This means the content of the programme is based on best practices in the UK higher education sector. Also, the programme derives from the significant expertise of UCLan UK while being informed by the latest industry needs (from Europe, UK, US, and of course Cyprus).
  • Accredited. Our programme is accredited by BCS, the Chartered Institute for IT7, as meeting the academic requirement for registration as a Chartered IT Professional, and by BCS, on behalf of the Engineering Council, as meeting the academic requirement for Incorporated Engineer and partially meeting the academic requirement for Chartered Engineer.
  • Industry-oriented specializations. Keeping up with developments in the industry, our course includes a number of purposely-designed modules enabling our students to specialize in Software Engineering, Games Development and Network Technology.
  • Academic Staff. The academic staff of the course is research active in a wide range of computing-related topics. Furthermore they are trained to be effective educators, with all of them having reached or working towards the title of Fellow of the HEA8.
  • Strong Quality Assurance. The BSc(Hons) Computing is accredited both by the UK's QAA9 and Cyprus' ECPU10, allowing us to offer a degree from both UCLan UK as well as UCLan Cyprus (that's why our graduates get a doubly-awarded degree).
  • International outlook. Our students enjoy many educational and employment opportunities abroad, such as funded summer internships in Europe through IAESTE and Erasmus11, and industrial year placements12. Furthermore, our students can opt to spend their Year 2 or Year 3 at UCLan at Preston, UK. Read how our students experienced these opportunities.
  • Real world skills. Our programme has modules aligned with professional certificates12 from CISCO and the Linux Professional Institute, allowing our students to strengthen their CV even before graduation.
