Our Computing Science degree will provide you with knowledge of the theoretical, scientific and mathematical components of computing such as:
- algorithms for data processing and analysis
- fundamental theory of information and computation
- software engineering principles and practices
- mathematics that underpins computational systems.
However, computing scientists do not deal with just hardware; they care about everything in between those areas. They design and develop all types of software from the large banking system which allows money to be sent internationally, to the small bit of software which identifies your iPod when you attach it to your laptop.
We train our students to have a creative approach to programming. As a result, our students are successful, employable and proud of what they do.
BSc Computing Science is a degree for people who enjoy the challenge of understanding the technical background of algorithm and software analysis and using these skills to solve real-life problems.
