Course in depth
What this course covers, who it suits and where it leads.
What you'll study
This course develops your expertise in the fundamentals of computing, alongside contemporary and future technologies in artificial intelligence, cybersecurity and mobile systems. A typical Computer Science degree progresses from foundations to specialist depth. You'll usually begin with programming fundamentals (in languages such as Python and Java), computer systems and architecture, and discrete mathematics. In Year 2, you'll normally move to algorithms and data structures, databases and software engineering, and artificial intelligence and machine learning. Year 3 typically offers specialist options such as cybersecurity, distributed systems, graphics, natural language processing or advanced machine learning, alongside security and networks, culminating in an individual supervised software project. Specialisations within this course include artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, data science, software engineering, systems and networks, and human-computer interaction.
Who it's for
This course suits those seeking a structured pathway into computing systems and software development. About 30% of accepted students enter with another higher-education qualification, so the course welcomes both school-leavers and those returning to study. You'll need English-language proficiency and a genuine interest in how computing systems work, from infrastructure to application design.

Support depends on ordinary residence, assessed fee status, course and provider nation. The provider nation is unresolved here, so no national cap or loan amount is being guessed.
Find your official student-finance route →Paying for it
- Tuition fee loan: applied for through the student-finance body for the UK nation you live in.
- Living-cost support: means-tested on household income, from your nation's student-finance body.
- Repayment: only above the income threshold set by your nation's student-finance system.
- Earn alongside: most students work part-time in term, part-time roles on the StudySmarter job board.
Each UK nation runs its own student-finance system; check gov.uk for the rates that apply to you.

AI doesn't replace the profession, it shifts it: routine tasks get automated, while judgement, working with people and using AI well become more valuable.
What AI takes off your plate
- Boilerplate and scaffolding code
- First-pass tests and docs
- Routine debugging and refactors
- Standard data wrangling
More human than ever
- System design and architecture trade-offs
- Reviewing and owning correctness & security
- Translating fuzzy problems into software
- Leading delivery and mentoring
The strongest graduates pair subject depth with the ability to use AI tools critically.

International students
What applying to Qahe (Ulst) Limited from outside the UK involves: fees, English, visa, funding and living costs.
Tuition fees
International tuition is £13,350 / year for this course (from the provider’s fee page). You’re not eligible for UK Tuition Fee or Maintenance Loans, so plan for fees plus living costs upfront.
English language
This course lists IELTS 6.0 with no component less than 5.5. If you’re just short, most universities run a pre-sessional English course that counts towards the requirement.
Student visa
You’ll usually need a Student visa (Student Route). After you accept an offer the university issues a CAS; you then show funds for fees plus about £1,023–£1,334/month living costs and pay the Immigration Health Surcharge for NHS access.
Scholarships & funding
Many universities offer international/global scholarships (often £2,000–£6,000/yr), check Qahe (Ulst) Limited’s funding pages.
Living costs
Budget roughly £1,100–£1,400/month outside London and £1,400–£1,800/month in London for rent, food and travel; the figure also matters for your visa.
Working while you study
A Student visa usually allows up to 20 hours/week in term time and full-time in holidays, useful alongside study, though not something to rely on for fees.
Visa rules and fees change. Always confirm the current requirements with Qahe (Ulst) Limited and gov.uk before you apply.
