Course Overview

Computer forensics and security are dynamic and growing areas of computing. As cybercrime continues to rise, so does the need for computing professionals to nurture the skills to defend against and investigate it.

You'll study specialist computing forensics and security issues alongside broader computing topics, using a variety of the most up-to-date tools and techniques. With significant demand for skilled graduates in the fields of digital forensics and cybersecurity, this degree brings with it excellent career prospects.

As well as a breadth of technical skills, you will develop hugely important professional skills to enable you to engage successfully with employers and their businesses. The option to take a year in industry as part of your degree provides an immersive experience for you to enrich your technical and professional skills further.

Areas of work for the computer forensic/cyber security professional include, but are not limited to digital forensic investigation in law enforcement, intelligence services (MI5), consultancy, financial services, or healthcare. Staff at Canterbury Christ Church have real-life experience in all of these areas and are well placed to advise what practitioner life is really like at the operational end of cyber security work.

You will also have a strong grounding for further study in specialist Masters or Research (MPhil/Ph.D.) programs. This degree will stand you in good stead to work towards professional qualifications with a number of commercial providers and also those of the British Computer Society.
