School Of Coding
Immerse Education is proud to be partnering with School Of Coding, whose aim is to inspire and excite students across the UK about the possibilities of studying computer science.
Recently featured on BBC News, School Of Coding aims to inspire students and create future tech leaders with fantastic educational, hands-on workshops.
Our Career Insights students have the opportunity to explore coding with School of Coding, where they will learn about the use of coding using real-world examples and explore computer science as a branch of the vast and ever-growing engineering career path.
Being at Cambridge was an experience like no other. I chose to attend this programme because I wanted to develop my abilities in coding and see whether I could handle the challenges of computer science. My favourite part of the lessons was being able to discuss different ways to solve problems in code and be able to look at a way to fix an error from a different perspective. I really enjoyed being able to work on mini coding projects along the way too. Learning in-depth about a subject and then having to apply that knowledge was the most beneficial aspect of the programme. I had the responsibility of producing a piece of work and that really helped me to collate all the notes I had made and really consolidate everything I had learnt.
Immerse™ Software Development & AI Sample Modules
-
Module 1 - Theory & Research
This introductory module introduces key concepts in the fields of engineering. You will examine real-world data, recent developments in the industry and innovative case studies across civil, mechanical, sustainable and aerospace engineering. You will learn how to use your data and research in product development, and practise presenting your insights in a professional setting. -
Module 2 - Practical Experience
Exposure to the industry brings future careers to life. Workshops may include a session with the Dyson Institute, a robotics master class with the School of Coding plus visits to industry heavyweights like Jaguar Land Rover or Transport for London. You'll get to see for yourself the engineering innovators that are changing the face of the industry. -
Module 3 - Real-World Project
As part of the engineering programme, your job is to offer an innovative solution to improve transport around London. You’ll begin by examining the problem and speaking to those it most impacts, for example meeting with Transport for London and London Assembly. You’ll investigate existing solutions and work on product development, taking into account available technology, budget and timeframe. The programme culminates in an opportunity to pitch your product or service to industry professionals. -
Module 4 - Professional Development
Bridging the gap between education and the world of work, this module offers an insight into existing and emerging careers in engineering. These sessions are made up of guest lectures and expert panel discussions with speakers from world-famous institutions like MIT, Stanford University and the University of Cambridge, and experience at leading companies like Airbus, Siemens and Rolls-Royce.
