Overview

A postgraduate pathway is a single course comprising two stages of study; Pre-Master’s and Master’s. When students successfully complete the full pathway they will be awarded a Master’s degree from ARU. The Pre-Master’s pathway will prepare learners for future postgraduate studies by giving them confidence and expertise in areas relevant to their taught Master’s degree. The Pre-Master’s course is Stage 1 of the postgraduate pathway, and is one semester in duration. It has been designed to prepare students who have not qualified for direct entry to ARU’s Master’s degrees, for postgraduate level studies. Undertaking a Pre-Master’s course will provide students with the time to adjust to the rigorous research and independent study requirements of postgraduate studies and prepare them to get the most out of their postgraduate study at ARU. The Master’s (Stage 2) offers students the chance to build on what they have learned during the Pre-Master’s and extend their professional understanding about their relevant area of study. From computer gaming to cloud computing, ARU is creative and passionate about developing ambition and careers in computing and digital technology. ARU's close links with the electronics, software, audio and creative industries mean they stay up to date with what their future employers need and ensure they help them develop the skills and knowledge to become an expert in emerging and important technologies. Students can improve their computer science expertise by developing industry level skills to design, develop and implement web solutions for clients worldwide. Moreover, students have the opportunity to specialize in cloud infrastructure within modern data centres, web application programming and IT security within business. Students can learn how to identify new and existing cyber threats and determine methods and processes to minimize attacks. Information technology (IT) is the application of computers and telecommunications equipment to store, retrieve, transmit and manipulate data.
