Program Summary

This MSc Computer Science in Network Engineering provides advanced knowledge of designing, building and testing a wide range of software and network systems. The course explores the networking, software development technologies and architectures involved in modern computer systems and networks. Students will learn the principles, applications, and the scope of current and future complex networks. They'll critically evaluate existing technology options, future developments, protocols, architecture and tools.

The University of Greenwich has a long-standing relationship with the British Computer Society (BCS), which accredits the computing degree programmes. Besides, the University is an academic partner with The Council for Registered Ethical Security Testers (CREST).

In a typical week, learning takes place through a combination of lectures, tutorials and practical work in the labs. Students will be able to discuss and develop their understanding of topics covered in lectures in smaller group sessions, and put their learning into practice in the University's specialist computer laboratories. Outside of timetabled sessions, they'll need to dedicate time to self-study to prepare for coursework, presentations and exams. Greenwich's Stockwell Street library and online resources will support further reading and research. Learners can also join a range of student societies, including the Computer and Technology Society, Gre Cyber Sec, Forensic Science Society, and the Games Development Society.

Graduates from this Computer Science course are equipped for employment in industry, commerce or the research sector, with a proficiency in the key theoretical and practical areas of designing, building and testing a wide range of computer and network systems.
