MSc Computing

What was your background in before studying this course?

Before starting my Masters, I studied a BSc (Hons) Interactive Media Design at Edinburgh Napier and graduated (in lockdown) in July 2020 with a 2:1. Prior to me getting my degree results back I had applied for the Masters and received a conditional offer ‘so long as I received a 2:1’ – so once my results finally came in my place was sealed!
What encouraged you to study your Masters?

I’m a very determined individual and have always been. I wanted to learn more and develop my knowledge so applying for my Masters was the next step to expand on what I had already learnt, whilst learning new skills.

Why did you choose to study here at Edinburgh Napier?

Since I live in a small town, I wanted to study in Edinburgh to experience the city more and meet different people, in a small town it’s really easy to know everyone so I found this as an opportunity and took it. On my undergraduate degree, I was emailed about this course, and did some of my own research. I was really drawn to what I learned about where it could take me in the future. After doing the research and speaking to lecturers I decided to apply.

Would you recommend the course? If so, why?

I would definitely recommend this course; all of my teachers have been fantastic and have gone above and beyond to help their students. As well as this, the course opens further opportunities and shows future employers that you’ve made an effort to enhance your skills and keep up to date with trends.
