These sessions will build your understanding of how and when to use appropriate processes, tools, technologies and project management practices. <br/><br/>You’ll have the opportunity to collaborate on real-world projects to produce software prototypes introduced and inspired by industry. Tackling projects found in industry will help prepare you for a career in software engineering, all within a supportive learning environment. <br/><br/>During your final year, you’ll create your own software application, guided by a dedicated project supervisor. As part of this project, you’ll undertake research, and apply new skills while you create a software product that you can be proud of. <br/><br/>The combination of teaching methods applied across the course will allow you to develop a range of skills through practical implementation, problem-solving activities, and teamwork, allowing you to take an active approach to learning and encouraging self-development.<br/><br/>You learn through <br/><br/><br/>- lectures <br/><br/><br/>- hands-on lab sessions and tutorials <br/><br/><br/>- regular feedback <br/><br/><br/>- teamwork and group-based learning <br/><br/><br/>- practice-based applied learning <br/><br/><br/>- discussions <br/><br/><br/>- self-study <br/><br/><br/>You will be supported in your learning journey towards highly skilled, graduate level employment through a number of key areas.
