About Bachelor of Science (Honours) - Computer Forensics and Security with foundation year
Computer forensics and security are dynamic and growing areas of computing. As cybercrime continues to rise, so does the need for computing professionals to nurture the skills to defend against and investigate it.
Students will study specialist computing forensics and security issues alongside broader computing topics, using a variety of the most up-to-date tools and techniques. With significant demand for skilled graduates in the fields of digital forensics and cybersecurity, this degree brings with it excellent career prospects.
The foundation year option enables students to join the Computer Forensics and Security course even if they don’t have the formal qualifications or experience to meet the entry requirements. It equips students with the knowledge to move into formal degree study, setting them up for future success.
As well as a breadth of technical skills, students will develop hugely important professional skills to enable them to engage successfully with employers and their business. The option to take a year in industry as part of their degree provides an immersive experience for them to enrich their technical and professional skills further.
Areas of work for the computer forensic/cyber security professional include, but are not limited to digital forensic investigation in law enforcement, the intelligence services (MI5), consultancy, financial services or healthcare. Staff at Canterbury Christ Church have real-life experience in all of these areas and are well placed to advise what practitioner life is really like at the operational end of cyber security work.
Students will also have a strong grounding for further study on specialist Masters or Research (MPhil/PhD) programmes. This degree will stand them in good stead to work towards professional qualifications with a number of commercial providers and also those of the British Computer Society.
