Overview
NCC Level 4 Diploma in Computing with Business Management is taught at a number of UK universities, and the entry terms are set department by department rather than nationally. It is a 1 Year (Full-time) undergraduate degree, with the specialism widening as you move through the years.
Teaching in Business Information Systems 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 5.5, and departments asking more than that usually expect a stronger academic record too. Tuition is £5,450 a year.
Applications open around a year ahead of the intake. Getting the documents together early is what keeps the September date realistic.
