We are really proud of our work environment; undergraduates, postgraduates, and research students work together alongside academic and support staff.

  • The world’s largest PlayStation development lab.
  • Cyber security labs with the latest forensic equipment.  

The Cyber Security degree requires students to develop a strong working knowledge of ethical hacking, network intrusion detection and computer network security. In their final year, students can engage with specialist areas including advanced penetration testing, information security management, cyber threat intelligence and virtualisation technologies, such as software-defined networking.
