GDip Computing (Pre-Masters)

This pre-Masters course tops up the equivalent of a UK ordinary BSc degree to UK honours level. It is aimed at international students with undergraduate degrees from institutions that do not award the equivalent of UK honours degrees. A Graduate Diploma (GDip) can be used to gain admission to a relevant MSc programme at Kent or elsewhere in the UK (subject to satisfactory performance). Performance on the GDip equivalent to a good 2.2 honours level guarantees entry to appropriate MSc programmes at Kent.

The GDip in Computing is suitable for graduates of other disciplines seeking to progress to the MSc in Computer Science (conversion), one of our IT and Business Masters programmes or the MSc in Molecular Computing. If you have studied computing before the GDip in Computer Science may be more suitable.
