Entry requires an honours degree at 2:2 or above in a relevant discipline with demonstrable knowledge of programming. A professional placement route extends the course to up to two years. What the fee covers: the international full-time rate, per year. Fee year: 2026-27. English requirement as published: IELTS 6.5 overall with no component lower than 5.5.
