BSc Computing Project

• Credit value: 30 credits at Level 6
• Convenor: Professor George Magoulas
• Assessment: a 7000-10,000-word project report (100%)
  

The computing project involves the use of one or more programming languages for implementing a system or for investigating particular algorithms and data processing methods or for investigating computer-based models of natural or artificial phenomena.

You will first be taught how to:

• formulate the project's objectives and aims
• write a project proposal
• organise and plan the project
• undertake a literature review
• write the project report.

Completion of this project gives you the opportunity to communicate complex ideas/concepts and approaches/techniques to others, and to demonstrate initiative, organisational ability and self-motivation to work autonomously.

By the end of this module, you will be able to:

• demonstrate knowledge of programming and software engineering
• develop designs for information systems
• analyse data using appropriate methods
• write programs in appropriate programming languages
• create and document a design using an appropriate modelling language
• use a coherent information system development process.
