Master of Science in Computing Atlantic Technological University - Sligo Campus, Ireland

The M.Sc. in Computing enables new graduates and established computing professionals to develop advanced thinking and technical know-how in a range of inter-related technology-centric disciplines. The programme is designed provide you with cutting-edge theoretical and practical skills in emerging disciplines of computing. The knowledge and skill-set that you will receive from this programme will help supercharge your career as an IT professional and will also provide you with a solid foundation for pursuing a Level 10 award.
The programme contains a mix of taught and research modules and places a strong emphasis on honing practical skills. Lectures and practicals are delivered in a dedicated learning environment where students spend the majority of their time on programming and project work. Depending on the modules that you select, you can expect to spend much of each week working on practical computing problems in cloud-based environments using languages like Java, JavaScript, C and Python. Each of the course modules involves the use of modern and AI-enabled compute environments and programming libraries.
You will begin your research project in the first semester, when a weekly seminar and a Research Methods module will be used to help you develop a research topic to work on over the summer period. The research topic that you choose may provide an opportunity to collaborate with an ATU research group or with an industry partner.
