COMP6224 2027-28
Foundations of Cyber Security
This module aims to give an overview of cyber security. The module will equip students with a clear view of the current cyber security landscape considering not only technical measures and defences, but also the other subject areas that apply, including legal, management, crime, risk, social and human factors.
Lectures will be given by staff from the University's Academic Centre of Excellence in Cyber Security with invited expert speakers from industry.
Case studies are used to reinforce the concepts being introduced. -

Foundations of Data Science
Welcome to the Foundations of Data Science! 'Data scientist' has been described as the sexiest job of the 21st century, with the demand for highly skilled practitioners rising quickly to leverage the increasing amount of data available for study. As the amount of data increases, so too does the need for employees who can extract meaningful insights from this data. This course is designed to introduce you to a range of topics and concepts related to the data science process. It will cover the technical pipeline from data collection, to processing, analysis and visualisation. You will be introduced to and gain knowledge of various topics such as statistics, crawling data, data visualisation, advanced databases and cloud computing, along with a toolkit to use with data (including R, D3, Google Refine and Hadoop). The course will include a mix of lectures, tutorials, hands-on exercises and invited talks from expert data science practitioners. Coursework will allow you to gain experience using the theory and techniques delivered in the lectures, while the group project will give you the chance to apply knowledge of the data science process and toolkit in the development of a data science application. -

Foundations of Embedded IoT Systems
This module explores the devices, technologies and software that enable embedded Internet of Things (IoT) systems. Typical architectures of IoT systems are introduced, from microcontrollers to communications with Cloud components. We consider how these systems operate, are programmed, and how they are powered. We also consider the embedded operating systems used by IoT systems, e.g. RIOT-OS and MBED, which provide core libraries for IoT functionality. Students will also learn how to use typical IoT communications technologies, e.g. LoRaWAN (using our campus-wide base stations) and MQTT for passing data messages. -
