If you enrol on any of the BSc (Hons) in Business Computing degrees, you will develop an understanding of the underlying organisational business system and processes that enable the information delivery system and users to carry out the business of the organisation effectively and efficiently. You will also learn what change can do to an organisation to enable the information systems to adapt in a timely and effective manner. Additionally, you will develop a reflective approach to project management issues arising from team based software development.
The modules on the degree cover a range of computing topics incorporating the basic properties of software artefacts, namely information, algorithms, programs, common commercial system and network architectures. System development approaches are also covered, including requirements capture, design methods, models, tools and techniques, implementing and testing systems and software maintenance. Appreciation of project management issues arising from team based software development is also a key feature of the degree. You will learn generic skills in problem solving both individually and in groups involving model building and analysis, applying both theoretical and empirical knowledge to make choices and find solutions. You will also master commonly used notations and methods to reason and communicate clearly about requirements, specifications, designs and solutions. One of the key attributes of a Business Computing graduate is the ability to research and to critically evaluate relevant topics, ideas and issues.
The aim of all undergraduate programmes offered by the Department of Computer Science is to equip our graduates with relevant knowledge and skills required for their commercial careers, making them highly employable. This is exemplified by the year of Professional Practice, where, as part of the degree, a student can gain up to a year’s industry experience (after their second year) on placement in the IT industry. A student may enrol on the degree with or without one of the three specialist areas, those areas being with eBusiness, Human-Computer Interaction or Social Media.

Civil Engineering at Brunel is ranked 3rd in London (Complete University Guide 2018).
Sustainability is a keyword for modern civil engineers and this BEng course in Civil Engineering with Sustainability provides an in-depth understanding of sustainable infrastructure development.
Drawing on an impressive body of pure and applied research engineers and scientists, we will introduce you to mainstream civil engineering knowledge, ranging from geotechnical site assessment to assessing and designing structures and environmental engineering.
You will explore the role of the engineer in current and future projects, following the sustainable ‘cradle to cradle’ approach called for by major institutions such as the Royal Academy of Engineering and the Institution of Civil Engineers.
Professional engineers working with major clients, consultancies and contractors are involved in bringing real world experience to the programme.
With the growing challenges to our infrastructure from rising populations, progressive urbanisation and economic development, climate change and the persistent risk of extreme events, the next few decades promise to be amongst the most challenging ever for the civil engineering community.
As a result, civil engineers need to draw deeply on their knowledge, skills and ability to innovate, to provide essential and sustainable infrastructure, including roads, bridges, tunnels, flood protection, and water supply and treatment systems.
The programme puts a focus on sustainable infrastructure, fully equipping graduates to play leading professional roles in industry and the wider local, national and global community.
It has been designed very much as a ‘hands-on’ learning experience. You will learn fundamental theory, and then have the opportunity to test and apply much of that theory through design in the laboratory, using advanced software, and during field work. You have the opportunity to pursue a valuable work placement and a major individual project in your final year.
