### Course description

## Course description

Cybersecurity is an area of computing that specialises in protecting data, networks and systems from digital attacks.

Today’s increasing reliance on technology in an interconnected world calls us to a greater protection of data and information systems. Many businesses, organisations and government agencies view the protection of online services as vital for their economic, educational and social growth. This feeds into a greater emphasis on the role of cybersecurity in society.

This course builds on strong computing foundations to provide expertise on how to prevent, protect and manage cyber-attacks, including AI attacks. You will learn how to build secure software, carry out penetration testing and apply cryptographic techniques to secure information.

Relying on a blend of theory and practical applications, this course will provide you with opportunities to keep up with new developments in cyber threats and defence mechanisms, consider the ethics and impact of decision-making processes related to security, and develop relevant skills for a successful career within the area of cybersecurity.

Although we can’t guarantee an offer due to the high volume of applications, if you’re eligible, we may still offer you a place based on our standard requirements.

### Contextual offers

The University of Leicester is committed to providing equitable opportunities for all applicants from all backgrounds. We make contextual offers to support students who may be impacted by the area they live in, their personal circumstances or who have completed one of our progression programmes . These offers are usually one or two grades lower than the standard entry requirements.

To qualify for a contextual offer, you must apply for an eligible course and meet specific criteria – check if you’re eligible .

When considering your application, we will look for evidence that you will be able to fulfil the objectives of the course and achieve the standards required. We will take into account a range of factors including previous exam results.

Applicants are not normally interviewed. If you receive an offer you will be invited to visit the School.

### Year in Industry or Abroad (optional)

## Year in Industry or Abroad (optional)

If you want to, you can spend your third year studying abroad at one of our partner institutions or working in an industrial placement. Alternatively, you can opt to continue studying at the University and complete your degree in three years.

### Year Abroad

We’ll make sure you have everything you need for your future career: not just by awarding you a high quality degree, but also by helping you to develop the skills, knowledge and confidence you need to make your mark in the world as a Citizen of Change. One way you can do this is by opting to take a Year Abroad between Years 2 and 3 of your degree.

Studying abroad is not just for people who are interested in travelling and meeting new people. It is about acquiring life skills that are becoming increasingly significant for a wide range of jobs in our modern globalised society. Whether you go on to a career in the private, public or third sector - or plough your own furrow as an entrepreneur – you will find the experience invaluable.

For more information, including a list of destinations, please visit our Study Abroad website .

#### Please note

* A year spent abroad still incurs a tuition fee, but this is much lower than for a normal year at Leicester. See the Fees and Funding tab of this page for details.

* You may be eligible for a travel grant from Student Finance England .

* Places are offered on a competitive basis, and eligibility is dependent on your academic performance in Years 1 and 2.

* Language courses, at beginners or advanced level, are available through our Languages at Leicester scheme.

### Year in Industry

An industrial placement is normally a paid company position, more than offsetting the additional cost of the extra year. It is a fantastic opportunity to gain experience of a working environment. You must apply for your placement yourself, but we will help you with the process.

During your placement you will be visited by a member of staff; when you return to the University you may give a presentation of your work experience. You will be provided with a log book to document your placement and will write a final report detailing your work, which will be assessed as part of your degree.

We provide excellent careers support, and our Industrial Advisory Board assists us in keeping our degrees fit for industrial needs. A year in industry is an excellent opportunity to learn more about the type of profession that you can choose after you graduate, and can also point you towards postgraduate studies that may help you strengthen the profile that you have identified for your career.

Your placement effectively begins in year two when you will be briefed in writing a CV, interview techniques and the procedures that you need to follow to obtain a placement. In addition, a list of potential industrial partners who have taken students in past years will normally be provided.

A year in industry still incurs a tuition fee, but this is much lower than for a normal year at Leicester. See the Fees and Funding tab of this page for details.

The modules listed reflect those currently available to students starting in the next intake and may differ from the modules available to current students. Every year, we review our modules and their content to ensure that our courses maintain the best academic and student experience possible. Whilst this does mean elements of your course may change in future academic years, it ensures your course is giving you a research-inspired education and preparing you for your future.
