Undergraduate

Computing and IT

UK University

Overview

Computing and IT is taught at a number of UK universities, and the entry terms are set department by department rather than nationally. It is a three year undergraduate degree, with the specialism widening as you move through the years.

Teaching in Information Technology is coursework heavy, with lab sessions each week and a substantial individual project in the final stage.

If you are comparing this against two or three other courses, send us all of them. We will set the entry terms and the fees side by side.

Entry requirements

Careers opportunities

A practical degree aimed at running and supporting the technology organisations depend on. Less competitive than software engineering and with a clear certification ladder from the first year.

Roles graduates go into

  • IT support or service desk analyst
  • Systems administrator
  • Network engineer
  • IT operations analyst
  • Cloud support engineer
  • IT project coordinator

Where they work

  • Managed service providers
  • Corporate IT functions
  • Public sector and NHS
  • Education and universities
  • Retail and logistics
After the course

CompTIA, Microsoft or cloud certification, which moves you off the service desk faster than experience alone.
