BSc (Hons) Computing

Arden University

BSc (Hons) Computing with evening timetabling is for people who would rather keep their daytime job and attend lectures after work. Classes are listed after hours in Birmingham, Leeds, Manchester, and at Holborn and Stratford in London. The early levels build coding and systems basics, then from Level 5 the university's course information offers two routes: one technical, towards software, web or database roles, and one about information systems, digital change and security strategy for those eyeing IT management. Assessment is hands-on, for example writing code or setting up cloud services, rather than exam-heavy. The next intake is December 2026. You qualify with two A levels and three GCSE passes at C, or, failing that, two years in professional work backed by a CV and a referee. AF Education’s advisers support England-resident UK home students through Student Finance England for free.

Course overview from Arden University

Advanced computing skills are in high demand in today’s global job market, providing you with ample opportunities to fill industry gaps, specialise, and progress your career. That’s why we’ve structured your learning to give you a foundation for ongoing skills development.

Our BSc (Hons) Computing offers in-demand skills sought after in today’s tech industry. Our modules cover areas of computing such as programming (Java, Python, PHP), web development (HTML, CSS, Javascript), databases (MySQL), cloud computing, cyber security, data analysis, human-computer interaction, and computing ethics.

You can tailor the skills you learn by choosing between two curated pathways depending on your aspirations: a technical pathway and an information systems pathway.

Learn by doing

Many of our modules are ‘hands-on’ and designed to equip you with the practical skills you need for your career. Unlike many computing courses that lack real-world preparation, our programme focuses on practical, authentic assessments. As such, you'll engage in coding, database creation, web document development, data analysis, and working with cloud services before engaging in assessments that allow you to demonstrate these skills.

Pathways that align with your career ambitions

We offer two pathways starting from Level 5, allowing you to tailor your degree to your career goals – giving you the choice to build your skills on the technical side or develop the strategic skills needed to help companies grow:

Technical Pathway:

Build on your programming, database, and web development skills on this path. If your ambition is to excel in software development, database design, or web development, the technical pathway is the ideal choice for you.

Information Systems Pathway:

This pathway focuses on digital transformation, ethical considerations, and strategic approaches to system security. If you aim to pursue leadership roles in IT management or seek strategic positions, the information systems pathway equips you with the necessary insights into contemporary workplace challenges.

Through the programme, you'll gain:

  • In-demand skills that enhance your employability and readiness for the workforce.
  • A variety of soft skills, including problem-solving, critical thinking, and presentation abilities, which are invaluable for your future career.
  • A portfolio to showcase your projects and accomplishments to potential employers.
  • Hands-on experience across various modern computing areas, curated from our carefully selected modules.

Your computing degree with Arden University sets you up for any number of possible career paths after graduation. Here are just some of the professions you could go on to explore:
