Software Engineering (Top-up)

This module shows how to design, manage, and optimise data pipelines across distributed systems and cloud platforms. You’ll work with real-time and batch data, using tools like containers, orchestration, and data versioning. You’ll also integrate machine learning models and use technologies like Azure, Kafka, Spark, and Delta Lake.

This module prepares you for real-world careers in computing by developing professional skills and technical knowledge. You will build strong research, analysis, and communication skills, and learn how to manage projects, assess risks, and follow industry methods. It brings together everything you have learned to prepare yourself for fast changing digital world.

This module gives you hands-on experience protecting digital systems and detecting threats in real-world scenarios. You'll learn vulnerability assessment, security engineering techniques using industry-standard tools. Working in teams, you'll explore offensive and defensive security while focusing on legal compliance and professional integrity in all security activities.

In this final project, you will choose a topic you care about and create a real solution. You will use everything that you have learned to plan, build, and test your idea—gaining hands-on experience and building a portfolio to show future employers.
