Why Sunderland for Computing?

Employability is our key goal for you. By working closely with multi-national and local companies we deliver life changing courses, creating graduates that industry really wants. We have developed partnerships with a number of major companies such as BT, IBM, Leighton, Microsoft, Oracle, SAP, Sun and Yahoo. We use these partnerships to improve and enhance the student experience on our courses. They add value to your time at Sunderland.

So what can you gain from our partnerships?

The answer is tremendous benefits.

  • Partners are included in the development of our courses so the curriculum is modern and relevant to industry;
  • Some partners provide modern hardware and software for our courses, for example, Microsoft provides the latest XBox technology;
  • Some partners actually help to teach on certain modules (IBM) or visit the Department and provide Masterclasses (Microsoft, Yahoo);
  • On many courses our partners recognise the work done by students with accreditation (Cisco, Microsoft, SAP);

Plus all the courses are taught at our modern very well equipment campus and we promise to provide excellent student support to ensure to succeed.
