Profile
Computer science is a dynamic discipline with a diverse range of applications and career paths. This program explores the theory and practice of innovative and experimental computer science, allowing you to develop well-rounded professional and technical skills. Computer science is a vast but specialized subject, and as a result, our degree equips you with the technical and professional skills necessary to apply yourself to a broad range of careers. Our UK graduates have gone on to work with major technology companies such as IBM, Google, BBC, and BAE, while others have chosen to take their software design, development, and management skills to SMEs, or have set up their own technology-centric businesses. Many of our computer scientists also elect to study for MSc or Ph.D. qualifications. In the first year, you will gain a comprehensive understanding of the fundamental principles of the discipline, combined with their modern-day application. Throughout your studies, you will gain skills and experience from a range of modules, including Software Development, Information Systems, and Digital Systems. Taking a practical approach to learning, you are encouraged to build and analyze systems and software, as well as work with end-user feedback to refine and adapt solutions. After gaining an overview of the subject in the first year, you will be motivated by topics that become progressively deeper and more specialized as your skills develop throughout the second and third years. In addition to progressing your foundational understanding, programming, and software design skills, you will explore social, ethical, and professional issues, giving you experience in computing in the real world. Your final year gives you the opportunity to explore a range of well-constructed and enriching modules, as well as undertake an individual project with one of our academics, allowing you to use and further develop the skills acquired throughout your degree.
