Flagship courses

Our flagship courses, such as the BSc Computer Games Programming can be informed by international quality research on virtual characters, some of which has been undertaken in partnership with major industrial players.

At the last Research Assessment Exercise 2008, 55% of our research was rated internationally leading and in recent years we have acquired an international reputation for our work in entertainment computing, in particular the development of interactive storytelling technologies.

The School of Computing's research has been funded by the European Commission, the Department for Trade and Industry and the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council through a number of collaborative research projects involving academic institutions throughout Europe as well as major industrial partners in the field of media and telecommunications.

Students applying for PhD studies, as well as graduates wishing to establish high-tech start-up companies can all benefit from a dynamic research environment and access to leading experts.
