The courses are as diverse and individual as the Class of 2024 - here are just a few examples: Applied Mechatronic Systems, Artificial Intelligence, Biotechnology, Business Management, Computer Science, Creative Writing, Games Technology, Cyber Security, Drama, Design, International Relations, Liberal Arts and Sciences, Mathematics, Media and Communications, Medicine, Microbiology, Psychology, Software Engineering.
