• We’ll teach you multiple coding languages, covering areas such as graphics and sound, physical computing, creative AI and full-stack web development.

• The degree will nurture your development not just as a technical expert, but also as a creative thinker, allowing you to learn and explore through a combination of technology and imagination.

• This degree is hands-on and practical from the start. You’ll create your own games, apps, digital artwork and interactive music systems. By working on practical projects throughout your degree you’ll build a relevant skillset for your future career.

• In your third year, you'll have the opportunity to undertake a year-long industry placement (making this programme four years full-time, or six years part-time). This gives you valuable experience to build confidence and contacts, further develop your skills and industry insight, and enhance your career prospects.
