The programme is structured to prepare students for careers in the field of network engineering, which involves designing, implementing, maintaining, and troubleshooting Computer Networks.

The programme usually combines theoretical knowledge with hands-on practical experience. Students may have the opportunity to work on real-world projects, simulate network setups, and use networking equipment and software commonly used in the industry.

Candidates are assessed by a variety of methods, including case studies, assignments, presentations and work-based projects.
You will be provided with details of the assignment requirements for each Unit. Students will be encouraged to engage with personal and professional development, gaining formative feedback on progress towards Unit outcomes, and developing knowledge and competence in the discipline.
