Course Overview

Whether you’re already an accomplished programmer or an absolute beginner, get career-ready with a degree in Computer Science.

All our Computer Science undergraduate courses offer a guaranteed, paid year in industry, between the second and third year, as a recognized part of your degree.

In your first year, you’ll develop a rock-solid grounding in computer science essentials. We will support you as you develop your programming skills, learn to problem solve using logical thinking, and develop the professional skills you will need for your degree and onwards for your career.

Then you get to choose from a range of specialist modules – from advanced programming and safety-critical systems to computer vision and mixed reality development – so that you tailor your learning to the career you want.

Whatever pathway you choose, our degrees are accredited to the maximum available level by the British Computer Society and will put you on the pathway to chartered status.

Plus, you'll be using the latest industry-standard equipment and facilities, including our brand new Superlab, high-performance workstations, gigabit networking, 3D printers, laser scanners, swarm and humanoid robots, VR headsets, a 3D immersive cube, motion capture, AR and MR.

You'll also have the chance to network, make contacts and test your skills out in the real world on a year-long industry placement. Or through extracurricular opportunities from hackathons to networking events with employers. Just like past students have for companies like BT, HP, BAE Systems, Microsoft, and Virgin Media.

Add all that up and by the time you leave here, you’ll be a well-rounded Computer Science graduate and a specialist with standout tech industry experience. Exactly what you need to make big-name employers stand up and take notice of your CV.
