This course has been designed to meet Irelands growing need for computing graduates who can contribute to the development of the next generation of cutting-edge computing technologies.

The demand for our computing graduates keeps increasing as technology continues to positively shape the world around us. With a computing degree, you’ve got a skillset that is internationally recognised, providing the potential for career mobility and excellent earnings. 

Combining the best of computer science with hands on practical skills, this four year degree will see students gain skills, knowledge and competencies in software development, mobile application development, web development, game and interactive development, entrepreneurship, networking, and cyber-security.

The BSc Computing prepares students to become modern computing professionals capable of designing, building and deploying intelligent software systems, data-driven applications and secure cloud solutions.

Students develop strong foundations in programming, modern software development practices, software engineering, web and mobile technologies, cybersecurity and cloud computing while learning how Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning techniques are applied responsibly to real-world challenges.

This programme aims to provide the academic knowledge and practical skills needed for a foundational computing qualification with specialisation in the area of software development.

The programme focuses on theoretical knowledge and practical skills in core areas such software development, database technology, computer networking, operating systems, computer security and web technologies while also offering applied skills in contemporary topics such as processing big data, cloud platform development and problem solving and algorithms.

This course is aimed at anyone interested in gaining a comprehensive understanding of both the technical aspects of computer systems and networks as well as the skills needed for software development. It’s ideal for individuals aiming to work in fields like IT infrastructure, network management, or UI software development, as it combines the essentials of both areas into one cohesive curriculum.

Computing is the study of how computers and computer systems work and how they are constructed and programmed. As computing increasingly impacts on every aspect of our lives, it is also becoming a more evolved and complex area.

While computing may be of general interest to students, it’s often difficult to know which area of specialisation will be of most interest. This course has been designed to give students the broadest possible choice before choosing a specialisation.

This course will provide students with a solid grounding in the computing fundamentals but is flexible to allow students to shape their experience to focus on what interests them. This allows them entry into a widely varied industry with the specialised skills of their choosing, while also having a grasp of the basics across other computing areas.

Students will learn skills in coding skills from application and web development to front and backend development, problem solving and critical thinking, and communication and collaboration skills.

Our Bachelor of Science in Computing provides you with a range of both theoretical and practical skills to advance in the computer industry. The ethos of this three-year course is to provide you with a strong core set of competencies in general computing - the kind of skills that are typically required across all aspects of the industry.  

This degree includes lots of time spent in computer labs creating programs and solving problems. The aim is to teach students how to use industry standard tools and techniques and then explain the concepts behind them. Creativity, problem solving, persistence and critical thinking are key skills which are developed during the degree. New high-tech computer teaching labs will open at ATU Sligo in 2023 and give students access to the latest advancements in technology.

The BSc in Computing is a three year programme where students begin in this shared first year alongside all other computing students across our programmes. The aim is to teach students how to use industry standard tools and techniques and then explain the concepts behind them. Creativity, problem solving, persistence and critical thinking are key skills which are developed during the course. At the end of Year 1, we counsel students on their next step, offering the following programmes to join: Computing, Software Development, and Games Development.

After Year 3, students may choose to continue their study in that computer programme to acquire a Level 8 honours degree (all but Games Development offer a Level 8 degree).

The Higher Certificate in Computing is a two year programme where students begin in this shared first year alongside all other computing students across our programmes. At the end of Year 1, we counsel students on their next step, offering the following programmes to join: Computing, Computer Networks and Cyber Security, Software Development, and Games Development.

Data Science, also known as Big Data Analytics is the process of examining large amounts of data of a variety of types (big data) to uncover hidden patterns, unknown correlations and other useful information. Such information can provide competitive advantages over rival organizations and result in business benefits, such as more effective marketing and increased revenue. Data Science has in turn been the big enabler for the expansion of Artificial Intelligence (AI) as a truly mass-market technology. AI relies on the patterns found in data to make decisions.  

This programme of study fosters the development of creative thinking, and the development of interpersonal and project management skills and competencies required to work in the technology sector. You will develop skills in a variety of software tool-kits and applications through hands-on practical development work, and the production of rich media and web application content for a wide range of platforms. The programme places a significant emphasis on practical skills and you will work individually and in groups on a variety of projects.
