Bachelor of Science (Hons) in Software Engineering

at University of Strathclyde United Kingdom

The program provides training and insights for those who have a professional or academic interest in an evolving human rights culture. Graduates in law and other disciplines, or those with relevant professional qualifications, will have the opportunity to develop a detailed understanding of human rights law at UK, European and international levels.

An innovative feature of the programme is the opportunity, offered on a competitive basis, to undertake a field dissertation.

There are three potential exit points from the course: Postgraduate Certificate, Postgraduate Diploma and Masters. Assuming satisfactory performance, it's possible to change between these exit points.

For example, a student who initially registers for the Certificate may opt to continue studying to the Diploma or Masters qualification; likewise, a student originally registered for the Masters can transfer to the Certificate or Diploma.
