BSc Web and Mobile Design
About this course
Web and mobile design sits at the intersection of software engineering and creative design, addressing how digital experiences are conceived, built, and delivered across the platforms, devices, and browsers through which people interact with the digital world. It is a discipline that demands both technical capability, in programming, data, and system architecture, and creative intelligence in visual design, user experience, and the communication of ideas through interactive interfaces. This four-year full-time degree at Robert Gordon University includes a sandwich placement year, a year abroad, and embedded work placement experience, and it draws on expertise from computing, communication design, and digital marketing. You will learn to design and develop applications across web and mobile platforms using industry-standard tools and modern software development techniques, gaining hands-on experience that mirrors the kind of interdisciplinary collaboration that professional development teams engage in. The programme is also flexible enough to allow you to develop additional expertise in areas such as data science, artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, creative design, or games design, aligning your skills with the career direction that interests you most. The sandwich year, year abroad, and work placements extend your professional formation into real industry and international contexts. A typical entry tariff of 136 UCAS points reflects an accessible admissions standard for a technically and creatively demanding programme. Graduates from web and mobile design programmes move into careers as web developers, mobile application developers, UX and UI designers, digital product managers, front-end engineers, and in a range of related digital and creative technology roles. Many continue to postgraduate study in computing, design, or user experience.
