Undergraduate study

Placement year

The industrial placement year leads to the award 'BSc/BA X (with an Industrial Placement Year)'.

Choosing the degree that is right for you is one of the most important decisions you are likely to make. Our degrees offer a thorough grounding in all major areas of computing, and give you the creative and problem-solving skills you will need to work with the technology of tomorrow.

All degrees can be completed in three years of study, or extended to four years through an industrial placement year (taken after the 2nd year). The degrees are structured to give some flexibility in the first year to transfer to a different subject within the Department.

If you have the ambition to undertake a degree in Informatics but are unable to meet the entry requirements for one of our named courses, our foundation year could enable you to achieve your goal.

 

International students who do not meet our standard entry requirements can apply for an International Foundation Year in Computing and Mathematics, tailored for you to continue to study for a Sussex degree on successful completion. Read more about international Informatics students at Sussex.

We also offer Masters Degrees (MSc) and Doctoral Degrees (DPhil/PhD).
