Business Information Technology with a Foundation Year

The BSc (Hons) Business Information Technology (BIT) course will provide you with knowledge and skills that bridge the gap between IT and Business to drive digital transformation, innovation and growth. It aims to provide you with the skills and experience needed to communicate and collaborate effectively with business users in both technical and non-technical industries. While the course contains a broad underpinning of traditional computing skills, it also focuses heavily on the highly sought-after digital transformation skills critical to keeping companies advancing in an information age.

Throughout your computing degree, you will be supported by expert teaching staff, many of whom have worked in the field of computing, are active in transformational research and are continually innovating with industry partners to achieve success.

The Foundation Certificate provides a comprehensive study course that underpins the follow-on degree. To progress to the next year of your degree, it is necessary to achieve a pass in all of the modules of the Foundation Certificate.
