Overview
We list Advanced Computer Science MSc because it keeps coming up in counselling sessions, and because the spread of entry terms across the UK is wider than most applicants expect. It is a 1 year postgraduate programme, so the pace is quick and the dissertation carries real weight.
Teaching in Advanced Computer Science teaches tooling that employers actually use, not only the underlying theory. We currently work with 32 universities on this course across 25 cities.
The lowest English requirement we hold on this course is IELTS 6.0, and departments asking more than that usually expect a stronger academic record too. Tuition ranges from £17.500 to £37.500 a year depending on the department, which is a real difference over the length of the course.
The fastest way to narrow this down is to send us your grades and English score. We will come back with a shortlist rather than a brochure.
Entry requirements
Careers opportunities
A postgraduate deepening rather than a conversion, and it is read as such: employers expect you to already code. It works best when the dissertation is in the area you want to be hired into.
