Computer Science

Computer science is about understanding computer systems and networks at a deep level. You will use your understanding of mathematical reasoning to reason rigorously about the behaviours of computer programmes and systems.

This course concentrates on creating links between theory and practice, covering a wide variety of software and hardware technologies and their applications.

The course offers the opportunity to develop more understanding of Computer Science as a subject, and focuses on the mathematical underpinnings of computer science. It offers the opportunity to gain practical problem-solving and programme design skills.

The first year and part of second year you will spend acquiring a grounding in core topics. Students can then choose from a range of options in Computer Science subjects starting in second year.

In the second year, students take part in a group design practical, which may be sponsored by industry.
