Industrial Advisory Board 2017-18
Function |
The Department is keen to identify strong links to industry and industrial practice. It consists of representatives of major companies in the IT industry – IBM, EDS, BT, HSBC as well as more specialist consultancies and companies. The Industrial Liaison Board meets twice a year and discusses issues relating to the curriculum, to employment and to research collaborations. The industrial members are extremely supportive of the Department and its students. They are very enthusiastic about the high quality of graduates that we produce and particularly interested in some of our industrial projects carried out by students in our courses. They appreciate that our students, with their help, have a big advantage other graduates from other universities in their awareness and experience of real projects and business issues. In May the meeting also coincides with our 3rd year project demonstrations and the industrial members always take a great interest in the projects done by our students – it is a good opportunity to identify potential recruits! In November the Department runs an Industrial IT Conference for students in years 3, 4 and the MSc. This conference is run by our industrial colleagues and focuses on some of the key issues pertaining to current large scale software development in industry. This is a very valuable, and popular, event which adds an extra dimension to the 'normal' computer science curriculum. |
