Immersive Digital Media – Higher Certificate

This module is designed to provide the student with the fundamental mathematical concepts encountered in the study of a computing discipline

This module aims to provide the learner with an overview of  the purpose, functions and structures of modern computer operating systems and databases.

This module will allow learners to understand, analyse and investigate digital storytelling, and to apply theory and empirical knowledge development with visual media creation.

This module aims to introduce learners to the necessary creative, research and technical skills required to originate and develop digital video material (including linear video, interactive video and immersive 360 video) for multimedia output.

Dynamic Web Design is an approach to web design aimed at creating websites that provide an optimal viewing and responsive interaction experience across a wide range of devices with a focus on client-side development and efficient web page deployment.

The learner will be able to communicate proficiently in a professional context.

This module will provide learners with a foundation and fundamental knowledge of the primary concepts of ludology and game play. Learners will understand what defines a “game” and the mechanics and rules behind different types.

This subject will equip students with the fundamental components and structures of programming and develop student problem solving skills.

This subject will equip students with the fundamental components and structures of programming.

This module will provide learners with a foundation and fundamental knowledge of User Interface Design (UI) and User Experience (UX).

This module will provide learners with a foundation and fundamental knowledge of visual design practice. Emphasis will be placed on visual/graphical creation and design.

This module will introduce the learner to the fundamentals involved in the development of web pages.

This module introduces learners to modern 3D computer graphics systems and gives them the understanding of the principles and practice of 3D computer graphics which is required to create high quality content.

Learners will develop applications that use polymorphism, interfaces and abstract classes.

This module aims to foster the application of methodologies, confidence and a deeper understanding of the interrelationships of creativity and design within the practices of content creation, adaptation and delivery.

Front-end web development, also known as client-side development, is that part the development of a web application that is on the front and visible to users. The front-end usually takes the form of an interface inviting the user to interact with the application.

This module gives students the foundation knowledge and skills necessary to design and develop immersive technology experiences using industry standard software and hardware tools such as Unity3D.

This module introduces learners to object oriented programming techniques such as encapsulation, information hiding and inheritance. Learners will also develop their programming and problem solving skills.

This module begins with a grounding in basic networking and then provides students with an overall understanding of the public cloud, independent of specific technical role.

This module will connect students’ education in the programme and their previous experiences to their internship/placement or post-graduation goals.

This module covers the creation of web applications using a popular server-side scripting language with a framework.

This module introduces learners to UML model specification and development enabling them to utilise models for problem solving in the context of the software development lifecycle.

This module explores the User Experience (UX) design paradigm from a broad perspective, emphasising how user research and prototype assessment can be integrated into different phases of the design process.
