Computer Science including International Year, MSci (Hons)

Artificial intelligence is transforming homes, workplaces, and lifestyles, and this course offers an in-depth exploration through optional modules in intelligent agents, autonomous systems, machine learning, and human-AI interaction. In your second year, you'll engage in a collaborative group project, often with industry partners like Capital One and IBM, to design future computer systems, enhancing your CV and professional network. The programme includes a third year abroad in destinations such as Australia or Singapore, boosting employability and cultural skills, followed by a flexible fourth year with master's-level modules, research projects, and options to advance programming or explore new areas like STEM ambassadorship.Why choose this course? It provides scholarships up to 50% off fees, the ability to transfer degrees in year one, no prior programming experience required, an average graduate salary of £32,104, opportunities for global study, accreditation by the British Computer Society, and a top-20 UK ranking. The first year covers computer science foundations, including languages like C, Java, and Haskell, plus fundamentals in AI, algorithms, and databases.

Your third year will be spent abroad. This will help improve your employability and be a great life experience. You will develop key skills in communication, confidence, and working with new cultures. In the first year, you will learn the foundations of computer science. You will be introduced to programming languages such as C, Java and Haskell. We don't expect you to have programmed before so you don't need to worry if you have no experience. You will also be introduced to fundamentals in artificial intelligence, algorithms, and data bases. In year two you will complete a group project. This will be focused on software engineering where you will design and program a computer application. You'll also study core modules in areas such as operating systems, algorithm efficiency, and language and computation. Optional modules are also available for you to study topics that particularly interest you. Year four offers a wide range of flexibility. We offer lots of optional modules so you can choose what you study and tailor your degree to your own interests. Our modules are linked to our own research groups. This means we are able to offer a wide variety of topics.
