Network Engineering

UK University

Overview

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

Applications open around a year ahead of the intake. Getting the documents together early is what keeps the September date realistic.

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.
