There is inreasing recognition of the importance of a national information infrastructure in creating an information society. Given the rapid spread of IT, ensuring security of information and authentication of access becomes even more important. The demands for secure systems come from all sections of the community: individuals, business and industry. This award is designed to provide up-to-date, relevant practical information on security and crime, underpinned by an academic framework. A range of external speakers in various modules will ensure that the information presents a state-of-the-art position in the field. On successful completion you will be well-equipped for a career in this rapidly-expanding branch of IT. With the breadth of technical and legal issues you will be able to make a major contribution to information security. This course is accredited by the British Computer Society and gives exemption from some of its examinations. There is a need to spend a substantial amount of time working independently on reading and preparing for the assessment. This should represent about 160 hours of work and will mainly be assessed through coursework. All assessment is coursework based. While the style of coursework may vary, most will be the submission of a research-style paper or essay. Each module normally has two essay/papers of around 3,500 words. Each module is taught in a five-day block and assessment normally takes place within three weeks. This course is designed for Honours graduates. While any discipline is acceptable, all entrants must have IT skills and extensive experience of the sector or be graduates in computing or a related area.
