A year-long course, our Information Technology (Top-up) BSc (Hons) is designed for those who have completed at least two years of university or higher education in a related subject. Equipping you with the knowledge and skills required for information systems to help organisations specify, design and implement information systems, you will work with sophisticated software. You will be supported by our team to develop your creativity and imagination, with our aim being to help you pursue a career within IT.
