BSc (Hons) Computing Science

In the current era of digital revolution, computer scientists and software engineers can be found at the forefront, driving latest developments in a broad range of fields such as artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, bioinformatics, healthcare, and data science.

Our BSc Computing Science degree focuses on software development and algorithms, with the aim of constructing robust and usable systems for industry and commerce. As well as looking at cutting edge tools and techniques, it’s designed to help you build the next generation of software tools that other system constructors will use. The course aims to give a well-integrated balance of theoretical underpinnings and practical experience, strongly informed by the research expertise of our academic staff. The strong foundation in Computing Science allows students to specialise in Data Science or Artificial Intelligence, by taking elective courses in their final year allowing students to tread confidently in the ever-changing era of technology.

Applications

Applications to both this undergraduate programme,as well as our Foundation in Science (with Computing route) and Foundation in Business (with Computing route) are currently open for applications for foundation intakes in January, May, July and September, and the undergraduate intake in September and January.
