Can I study for an MSc programme in Computer Science and IT part-time?
We offer one MSc programme, an MSc in Computing, that is primarily suitable for part-time study over up to 5 years. It has no lectures. However, study for any of our full-time on campus lectured MSc programmes can also be done part-time. Arrangements for doing this are individually negotiated with the MSc programme’s director. Part-time students can take a maximum of 7 years to complete such a programme. The curriculum of such a lectured MSc programme taken part-time is the same as the curriculum of the programme taken full-time except that study is extended over more than one year. Since none of the lectured MSc programmes is primarily designed as a part-time programme, part-time students are warned that lectures and supervised labs taken part-time are not neatly bunched together on one or two days but are spread throughout the week from 9.15 on Monday morning until 17.15 on Friday. No lectures are given in the evening. This can make it difficult to combine study of particular courses
