2. Data Structures and Algorithms

3. Web Application Development

4. Agile Development Team Project


In the third year, I will have 2 main modules and an optional module

1. Software Development: Methods and Standards

2. Big Data and Machine Learning

3. Development Project

Optional modules:

  • Block 3 / 4: Functional Programming
  • Block 3 / 4: Advanced Web Development
  • Block 3 / 4: Fuzzy Logic and Inference Systems
  • Block 3 / 4: Privacy and Data Protection


What modules am I most interested in?

I am interested in all the modules but the one that I want to learn the most about is programming as I believe the language of computers will be essential in the future.


What is my goal after I complete my course?

My main goal is to start my own business, I believe that learning computing will give me an edge on the competition whilst starting my business I can work a flexible career in software engineering to support my business endeavors.

Case Study (Conclusion)

 Python is the most popular programming language according to TIOBE Index and this is for good reason, mainly due to its simple syntax, large libraries and versatility. Created by Guido van Rossum in the late 1980's making software development much simpler to understand, and increasing its popularity in the modern era where everything is moving online and onto applications. The research has provided me with additional knowledge on the development of python and has increased my eagerness to learn more about this language and develop my skills as a skilled python programmer. With this knowledge, i will continue to work on my python skills and develop projects I have an interest in and follow my passion of scaling online businesses.

 Software Development (Cloudinary.com) Computers have become one of the most important assets in modern society because of their advantageous nature in many fields. For example, doctors rely on computers to save data for medical studies and even to preserve information on patients, therefore computers have grown significantly in today's world because they are utilized in most professions. These days, we rely heavily on computers to help us complete things quickly, communicate, educate, and for a variety of other purposes  Vanshika (2022). As we can see computers are of significant importance and would greatly increase the quality in many aspects if we utilize their power by communicating with the machine, this is the act of programming, where humans can communicate with computers to greatly reduce the time it takes to accomplish tasks and make it much more convenient What is software development? Software Engineering (SE), according to IEEE Standard, is the use of a methodical...

(Adam, 2021) Agile is an incremental, iterative method to software development that prioritises providing value to consumers through brief, regular releases. Throughout the development process, it places a focus on cooperation, adaptation, and flexibility. According to the Agile methodology, the development process is divided into shorter iterations called sprints, which typically run one to four weeks. A set of features or user stories are planned, designed, coded, tested, and reviewed during each sprint. For each sprint, the development team closely collaborates with stakeholders, including product owners and users, to collect feedback and determine which features are most important.     (AI-Saqqa et al. , 2020) The key principles of Agile include: Customer collaboration over contract negotiation: Agile promotes frequent and direct interaction with customers and stakeholders to ensure that the development team understands and meets their needs. Responding to change over fol...
