This course provides students with the knowledge, skills and experience needed to develop software systems for implementation in different international and cultural locations. It is aimed at students who have an undergraduate degree in another discipline and builds on the key transferable outcomes they gain from that degree: outcomes such as self-learning, communication and critical thinking.

This MSc programme will provide students with the opportunity to acquire cutting-edge knowledge in a wide range of software development activities, such as requirements analysis, software design, implementation and testing. It will combine this with expertise in the field of customising systems for different markets (international and cultural), including modules on language engineering and translation technology. As such, it caters for the continuing demand that exists for software development graduates, both nationally and internationally.
