The multimedia computing programme provides applicants with previous Higher Education level credits from other courses (for example a foundation degree, or an incomplete, appropriate, bachelors programme). It provides a broad range of optional modules from computing area at stage 2 and 3, so applicants can progress to a full bachelors degree specialising in areas of interest.

Module choices are drawn from the suite of computing subject areas within the School of Computing and Mathematics. These include software engineering, analysis and design, computer networking, security and artificial intelligence.
