Study Computing at DMU
De Montfort University (DMU) has a long history of developing new technologies and we have been teaching computing for over 50 years.
A number of our courses are accredited by professional bodies and we have links with renowned companies such as Hewlett Packard (HP), Deloitte, IBM, BT and Airbus UK, ensuring you have the opportunity to develop industry-relevant professional skills.
Our excellent facilities include Game Development Studios, specialist Forensic and Security laboratories, Computer Science laboratories and an Advanced Mobile Robotics and Intelligent Agents laboratory.
Courses
We offer the following undergraduate and postgraduate courses in Computing, listed with their English language requirements and 2019 tuition fees:
All undergraduate computing courses are three years in duration (or four with an optional placement year) and start in September.
Our postgraduate Computing degrees are one year in duration (or two with an optional placement year). We also offer
pathways courses for international students who need further academic or English language support before progressing to a computing course at DMU.
Work placements
Most of our courses offer you the opportunity to do a year-long placement in industry. Past students have undertaken placements with companies such as Hewlett-Packard (HP), Intel, Microsoft, Airbus Group and GlaxoSmithKline.
If you are on a tier 4 visa and are approved to undertake a one year work placement, you will be granted a longer visa that includes the work placement.
However if you do not subsequently undertake a placement, we will curtail your visa which may have implications for any further Tier 4 visa applications. Any time added for work placements will contribute towards your time limit for studying in the UK.
Entry criteria
Academic requirements: To check the entry criteria for your country, visit dmu.ac.uk/yourcountry or email us at admissions@dmu.ac.uk.
English language requirements: All our computing courses require an IELTS 6.0 overall with a minimum of 5.5 in each band, or equivalent. If you do not meet the English language criteria, you may want to consider joining a DMU pre-sessional English course before you begin your studies.
