Our Industry-Based Learning (IBL) program is highly recognized by the IT industry. High-achieving undergraduates may apply for a place in the program, which involves a scholarship and a 22-week industry placement during the third year of the degree. The placement is a part of the curriculum and is formally assessed and credited towards the degree.
