Overview

BSc Cyber Security (Top-Up) Online is offered widely in the UK, so the useful comparison is between departments rather than between countries. It is a 1 Year (Full Time) / 18-24 Months (Part-time) undergraduate degree, with the specialism widening as you move through the years.

Teaching in Cyber Security starts from programming fundamentals even on postgraduate courses marked as conversion, which matters if your first degree was in another field.

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 is £9,450 a year.
