A personalised study plan will be made for you after discussion with the course director to fit your work commitment and time you have for the Computing Science (Part Time) MSc course from the University of East Anglia . In total, you need to take six taught modules over two years, which include a compulsory module, and two optional modules that are more advanced or specialised in some areas such as developing secure software, cyber security, machine learning and data mining, computer vision, and modern embedded technology. In general, you should balance your study workload over the two years, that is, roughly three modules a year. In addition, you need to do a dissertation project.
