About the Course
This Foundation Degree includes the study of such topics as client-side and server-side scripting, and database design and implementation using SQL, all of which contribute to the current extraordinary achievements of the Internet and provide solid foundations for the next major iteration of the Web that is being built upon Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning technologies as well as projects like Progressive Web Apps (PWAs).
We will introduce students to a selection of current Internet and Web Technologies such as Web Server configuration, network forensics and advanced topics in full stack software development, cloud computing and cyber security which form an integral part of the course. This topic integrates well within the project-based approach of the programme that reflects 'real life' problems that students can expect to encounter in the world of work. As with much of the modern coding paradigm, an object-oriented approach will be used fundamentally to develop coding solutions.
This course is designed to support progression into employment or on to a Top-up Degree.
