Software Systems Development

You will develop secure software with the most modern methods of software technology for all areas of application, and you will have the ability to analyse, select, and utilise appropriate emerging technologies for the development of a software solution. You will be able to store, manage and mine data for businesses, and to develop systems to enable organisations to extract value from such data.

There is a strong focus on programming and website fundamentals to provide you with a solid background for later years. In years 2, 3, and 4 you will study specialist modules in mobile and web app development, database systems, business analytics, information systems and computer security.

This programme provides you with the opportunity to become a well-rounded software developer with a background in either business, psychology, or a European language.

Companies in Ireland are seeking software developers who possess multi-disciplinary skills in the areas of Business, Psychology or Languages. With this in mind you will have the option to study those areas as elective option from year 2.

In year 3 you have the option to complete work placement or study abroad. Studying abroad has become a popular choice for all our students especially those who have chosen the European language elective.
