MSc-Nottingham-Internet & Enterprise Computing

The MSc Internet and Enterprise Computing course is aimed at computer-systems literate graduates who wish to add expertise in the architecture and development of large-scale Enterprise Information Systems (EIS) to their portfolio of skills.

One particularly original feature of this course is that it combines the managerial and computing aspects of EIS. You will learn how to optimise the information flow between business processes and how to critically analyse the impact of deploying information systems to support organisational and business processes.

On the computing front, you will learn the principles and techniques necessary for designing, developing and evaluating EIS that are distributed, interoperable, intelligent and adaptive to change.

The course addresses the three key elements of Enterprise Information Systems Development, Intelligent Management of Information Systems and an MSc Research Project.

The postgraduate academic year is divided into three terms, each of ten weeks plus a 15-week independent study period for MSc students. The course structure is as follows:

Weeks 1-10

Advanced Software Engineering
Internet Programming
Weeks 11-30

Enterprise Computing
Intelligent Business Systems
Enterprise Systems Management
Research Methods
Weeks 31-45

Research Project
All students spend the three academic terms studying the six taught modules. MSc students spend the independent study period pursing an individual research project.

Assessment
All modules are assessed either by coursework, case studies or dissertation.
