Supervised by M.Stannett

Abstract

Looking into the future of Computer Science MSc Programmes, it is crucial to determine how different aspects of the current UK education system is handling the changes in IT trends. Multiple factors will cater to the growth and direction of the Computer Science MSc programme. It is then up to each and every university to determine what their students are going to learn and which modules they would benefit from the most. Through research and analysis, we can explore what students set out to achieve when they register for a postgraduate degree in Computer Science and how universities are able to contribute to their success.
