We live in the age of ‘any device, any time, anywhere’ computing. Technology, communications and consumer electronics are rapidly evolving, and computer systems are central to our everyday interaction, from large scale distributed systems based on the internet to an embedded system in a consumer electronic device such as a mobile phone.
This hands-on course is designed for students who want to understand state-of-the-art developments in hardware and software, and develop the skills and ability to design computer systems in every aspect of commerce and industry.
Brunel’s course works around four themes:
The range of options available in later years of the programme will allow you to maintain breadth or to specialise, with a focus on computer hardware design, data communication networks or distributed computing.
The very nature of the technologies that underpin computer systems means that you need not only to understand state-of-the-art developments in hardware and software, but also to have developed the skills to design computer systems for modern commerce and industry.
With demand for experts rapidly growing, this course will equip you with advanced knowledge of computer hardware and architecture, computer software, digital electronics, communication networks, embedded systems and interfacing.
You should be:
Our coherent curriculum develops your problem solving, professional development and transferable skills – and we’ve strong links with industry that has led to an excellent record of employability amongst our graduates.

The Core Spine
The core spine of Global Challenges is the common thread running through this degree, and will explore questions associated with how the citizens of tomorrow will face, analyse, and manage inevitable challenges related to the ‘wicked problems’ of our time. These themes will form the central framework of the degree programme, taking an in-depth look at issues such as climate change, migration, terrorism, aging populations, food and water scarcity, poverty and countless others. As well as undertaking the core spine of degree, you will have the choice to follow one of four pathways that specialize in an area of Global Challenges. These complementary strands have been selected not only because they all represent pressing issues faced by the international community, but also because of Brunel’s existing and emerging expertise in these areas.
Planetary Health
The impact of human activity must be addressed and managed so that we do not continue to damage our ecology and ultimately ourselves. Brunel University London is a member of the Planetary Health Alliance, a consortium of over 70 dedicated universities, NGOs, government entities, research institutes, and other partners around the world committed to advancing planetary health.
To adequately address the threats of accelerating environmental changes, there is a need for graduates able to examine the ecological determinants of human health and predict their likely consequences at both geographical and temporal scales, and within different socio-cultural and economic contexts. This understanding will enable them to contribute to better governance, better resource management, better planning and better design in order to mitigate the growing risks.
The scope of the strand straddles across environmental, health and social sciences. On completion, students will understand that the way that humanity manages Earth’s natural systems is a primary factor of future global health.
The Planetary Health strand comprises of three elements;
The aim of this new degree programme is to develop your knowledge and understanding of the natural sciences, humanities, social sciences, technology, philosophy and ethics and how they can contribute to identifying, understanding and responding to global issues and concerns. You will learn the critical, practical and research skills needed for successful self-directed work and for contributing to a shared objective as a team player.
Global Challenges is specifically focused around developing the ability to not only critically question ideas on knowledge, values and experience, but also engage with them. Criticising and re-interpreting major texts, conducting though experiments and developing evidence-based responses in written, oral and audio visual will all make up part of your study. This means, once you complete the Global Challenges degree, you’ll have the confidence to identify the underlying issues in a variety of contemporary global situations and the understanding of the sociological, political and economic implications of human interaction.

On this programme in computer science, specialising in network computing, you will gain a good understanding of computer science and a grasp of the important elements of a computer system. You’ll also learn how to build different types of software from web-based systems to mobile solutions. In the final year you’ll take compulsory modules in advanced computer science and choose options from a range of computing topics. Network computing graduates have a wide range of careers open to them. Perhaps you’ll start by becoming a general analyst/ programmer, or join a consultancy firm – often just a first step toward setting up your own business.
The aim of all undergraduate programmes offered by Department of Computer Science is primarily to equip our graduates with appropriate knowledge and skills required for their mainly commercial careers, making them highly employable.
Computer Science (Network Computing) programme graduates will be able to:
• Display an in-depth knowledge of the challenges and ways distributed information systems work and apply their development and implementation skills to the production of such artefacts.

Brunel’s Women in Engineering and Computing mentoring scheme provides our female students with invaluable support from industry mentors
Brunel University London’s impact on the future wages of its graduates is among the best in the country compared to other universities, according to a new analysis of government data by The Economist (2017).
Data capture and analysis techniques to understand brain-behaviour relationships are continually emerging, creating a need for in-depth knowledge of neuroscience methods and their applications to understand brain function when healthy through cognitive neuroscience, and when disease strikes through clinical neuroscience.
The development of new strategies combined with the availability of large cognitve, neuroimaging and genetic data sets from healthy and clinical populations from different parts of the world have created a need for trained individuals to use these resources for scientific advancement and to improve human health. The Cognitive and Clinical Neuroscience MSc has been designed to address this need.
On this course, you will develop a detailed understanding of the historical and contemporary concepts and theories underpinning our current understanding of human brain-behaviour, innovative neuroscience methods and their application to understand brain function, and the core cognitive and affective processes and associated neurology. You will also be equipped with specialised analytical skills that will allow you to assess and interpret neuropsychological function in healthy and clinical populations, and will be able to report research evidence as a result.
Whilst studying either one year full-time or two years part-time, you will be taught by a multidisciplinary team of experts including psychologists, psychophysiologists, neuroimaging researchers and clinical scientists. The academics teaching the course are making advances in cognitive and clinical neuroscience, and will lead with their research so you will receive the most up-to-date knowledge in this field.
You will learn innovative neuroscience methods and gain hands-on experience with our fMRI and MRI scanners to study brain function in health and disease. You will also have opportunities to interact with renowned local, national and international experts in the field through Brunel's research centre, the Centre for Cognitive Neuroscience (CCN).
