        "modules": "What you will study\n\nYEAR 1 (FOUNDATION YEAR)\nThe foundation year provides students with the knowledge and confidence in the use of formula, data manipulation and representation. You will gain an understanding of the core hardware and software associated with the use of computer systems, as well as keeping up to date with current developments in technology. There will be numerous opportunities to work on practical activities such as robots, CAD design which will be further developed at degree level.\n\nYEAR 2 (LEVEL 4)\nLevel 4 contains essential fundamental material which is relevant in all of our computing programmes. You will learn both subject-specific skills along with transferable skills which will increase your employability prospects. \n\nWith the support of your tutors, you will learn about some of the essential facts, concepts, principles and theories relating to computing and computer applications. You will be able to demonstrate skills that underpin good practice in the field of computers and computational methods, e.g. laboratory tasks involving the creation of simple programs and the use of operating systems.  \n\nThis will help develop your understanding of hardware issues, including interfacing and data communications, and their impact on the overall design and performance of computer-based systems.\n\nMODULES\nFundamentals of Machine Learning\nInformation Security and Governance\nSoftware Development Methodologies\nApplied Computational Methods\nProgramming Fundamentals\nComputer Systems and Architecture\n\nYEAR 3 (LEVEL 5)\nLevel 5 continues teaching you the fundamentals of the discipline, and more specialist modules start to be introduced. You will also undertake a group project where you will gain important skills in project management techniques and the professional and ethical issues of project management. \n\nYou will also deepen your knowledge and understanding of computing concepts and approaches for complex problems through the application of several existing artificial intelligence techniques for learning and optimisation targeting real-world problems.\n\nMODULES\nData Structures and Algorithms\nSecure Software Development\nCloud, Distributed Architecture\nMachine Learning\nSystems Engineering and Project Management\nGroup Project\n\nYEAR 4 (LEVEL 6)\nOnce you reach your final year, you will further develop your skills through taught modules and research, with a focus on the latest developments in your chosen discipline.\n\nYou will also undertake an individual final year project, which will help prepare you for the kind of tasks and situations you may encounter in the workplace. The final year practical and project work will further develop your analytical skills through the analysis and appraisal of current and emerging technologies, taking into account their impact on society.\n\nMODULES\nDeep Learning Implementation\nCryptography and Defensive Systems\nData Analysis and Visualisation\nEmergent Technologies\nProject\n\nThe information listed in this section is an overview of the academic content of the programme that will take the form of either core or option modules. Modules are designated as core or option in accordance with professional body requirements and internal academic framework review, so may be subject to change.",
