Offered by Queen Mary, University of London, in collaboration with Macao Polytechnic Institute

Programme Outline
The growth of the Internet has led to the emergence of new industries, services, and products that were unimaginable only a few years ago. With the rapid growth of the Internet has come the need for employees with the special skills required to build and deploy industrial-strength Internet computing systems. They are currently in very short supply.

The MSc in Internet Computing is a postgraduate course designed to equip students with the skills needed to succeed in the Internet computing industry. The MSc is intended both for graduates in a related discipline, who wish to enhance and specialise their skills in the area, and also for industrialists with some experience of working in the information technology or telecommunications sectors, who wish to obtain a formal qualification.

Upon completing the MSc Internet Computing, graduates will have gained advanced skills in the application and underlying theory of Internet computing technologies. Taught modules include the basic principles of digital networks, through modules that describe the software technologies that drive the Internet, to modules that describe research-level technologies, techniques, and services. Upon completion, students will possess a thorough understanding of Internet computing, with a specialised understanding of some chosen sub-field based on the project.
