These now established growth areas have introduced new development practices and approaches that require graduates to be much more resilient and adaptable to disruptive changes in the industry, which will be emphasised in the new modules taught on the course. The emerging data reliant fields of EdTech, FinTech, and HealthTech are primarily driving these changes.
