MComp Computing Science with Study Abroad

In this four-year Computing Science with Study Abroad degree, you’ll follow the BSc programme structure while you’ll take a year abroad. Learn to programme the future and gain a solid foundation in a range of computing fields, including managing and storing data for banks and businesses; creating and designing action-packed games; improving web usability and user experience, or developing next- generation apps, AI, robotics, cloud computing, big data and lots, lots more. This flexible course is ideal if you’re a digital native who already lives and breathes computing.

You might like solving real-world problems, or coding your next-generation apps and websites, designing your own games, or building your own hardware. You’ll acquire a strong grounding in the theory of computing science, as well as gaining experience and skills in software engineering and problem solving. You’ll become a competent programmer in a range of modern general-purpose languages such as Java, Python, JavaScript, C and C++.

You’ll explore the underlying principles of the subject and learn to adopt a logical, systematic approach to developing solutions to real-world problems. All our computer science courses follow an identical structure in the first two years. This means that you can easily transfer between them if you decide you want to incorporate a year abroad, a year in industry or continue to Master’s level learning.

In core modules, you’ll cultivate the essential skills of a computing professional.
