Software development is the set of activities that results in software products. Software is everywhere in our lives: from mobile phones to business systems and cloud based services. Software developers work in collaborative teams to solve real problems.
The course equips students with the skills required to work in a diverse range of areas within software development and support. Students follow our ‘learning by doing’ model in first year with continuous assessment replacing final exams. Modules include a broad range of subjects including: Programming, Operating Systems, Networking, Computer Hardware, Web, Mobile and Cloud Programming, Computer Architecture, Software Engineering and an industry work placement. The course offers flexibility for students with an early exit after Year 2 with a Higher Certificate in Computing award (NFQ 6).
