Over half of the students in our school choose to embark upon a Year in Industry after the second year, giving them valuable work experience, a salary, and often a good job offer upon graduation. Our final year contains a range of exciting optional modules taught by subject specialist lecturers in areas such as e-commerce, eHealth, signal and data analysis, neural computation, semantic web and computational intelligence. These specialists comprise internationally-renowned researchers, as well as authors of textbooks used around the world. Another option is Kent IT Consultancy (KITC), which offers to train students to become an IT Consultant through providing a real computing support consultancy service to local businesses.
