Hypermedia for the Information Professional - familiarises students with some of the principles of effective web site design and with some of the tools required to create and develop hypermedia documents for integration into web pages. Current industry standard page mark-up scripting languages will also be introduced.

Systems Analysis and Design with UML
- introduces students to the software development life cycle, systems analysis and IT applications. It will also enable students to develop workable solutions to business information system problems using the object oriented (OO) paradigm. They will have the opportunity to apply a well-established OO method. Advanced modelling concepts and techniques will also be used to build complex object models. Students will understand the need for, and have appreciation of, professional codes of practice for analysis and design.

MSc Project
- provides students with experience of undertaking a substantial piece of research and software development related to the modules taken elsewhere on the programme. It should enable them to demonstrate personal enterprise and self reliance, combined with a high level of subject understanding and technical competence within the field of computing and information technology.
