Study the fundamentals of Computer Science including artificial intelligence (AI), coding, DevOps, Internet of Things (IoT), robotics and cybersecurity. Challenge your creativity and technical skills with a series of exciting, hands-on practical projects.
This interesting and challenging course combines hands-on development with the theories behind how and why computers work as they do.
You'll have the opportunity to explore a wide range of tools and technologies, becoming adept in software development and configuration, and learn industry-relevant languages (e.g. Javascript, C#, Python, SQL) and various methodologies for professional development. You'll work alongside other students and academics (who are experts in their field) in the David Goldman Technology Centre, and have access to various specialist computer science labs.
Topics you'll study include: software development, database systems, artificial intelligence (AI), Internet of Things (IoT), DevOps, emerging technologies, robotics, industry projects, and cybersecurity. We provide professional-level developer software and advanced hardware through accreditations with Cisco and other major companies. We also have excellent links with industry and provide all BSc (Hons) Computer Science students the opportunity to study for additional industry certifications.
Teaching methods include lectures, tutorials, seminars and laboratory sessions. You will be encouraged to develop independent study skills as well as work with other students on group projects.
As well as assessments that count towards your degree, there are also ongoing opportunities for feedback and consolidating your learning.
