(Hons) Computer Science (Online) University of Hertfordshire

Overview

The (Hons) Computer Science (Online) programme from University of Hertfordshire  gives you a broad range of skills and knowledge in core areas including foundations of computation, programming, multimedia, networks, databases, operating systems and software engineering. Information technology includes many aspects of computer science but with more focus on the computer technology needs of people and organisations.

What will I study?

• With online study, you study at your own choice of time and place, saving on travel and accommodation costs and fitting in with your other commitments.

• Our programmes begin on specific dates, you study as a small group, there are deadlines for coursework assignments and online tests with a fixed 24-hour period to take them in. 

• This way you combine the flexibility of distance learning with the self-discipline and community spirit of conventional tuition. Our students come from all over the world so you will have a great opportunity to gain first-hand experience of global networking.

• With online study, you use the Internet for learning: to access course information, to communicate with others, and to transmit completed assignments for marking.

• We take advantage of online technologies to provide faster and more effective communication and to deliver much richer learning materials than is normally possible with other forms of distance learning.

What's next for my career?

• Graduates have gone on to become software developers, business analysts, database administrators, network designers, technical consultants, programmers, web developers, project managers and software engineers.
