Graduates with a Bachelor of Science (BSc) in Computer Science are in strong demand. This degree is extremely flexible. You can do it with a heavy emphasis on computer science or you can combine a minimal core of computing with a second major.

HOW TO APPLY

All CSSE Courses

All courses for Computer Science and Software Engineeringon the University's course information system.

Computer Science

Our Bachelor of Science in Computer Science is a flexible, three-year degree and students have the ability to incorporate a variety of elective courses. See ourComputer Sciencepage for more detail.

Data Science

Our Bachelor of Science in Data Science is one of the newest professions to come from this demand for effective storage, maintenance and use of 'big data'. Graduates with modern technical knowledge of computing systems and statistical simulation are needed to process information in a range of industries. SeeData Sciencefor more details.

Introductory courses

These depend on your degree.

  • or

These courses are required to advance to most of our second-year computer science papers.Data Science requires STAT 101 as well.

If you are not sure which degree you want to do yet, start with theSoftware Engineering First Yearbecause it covers everything for both Software Engineering and Computer Science degrees.

Summer courses

CSSE offers summer courses at varying levels from November through to February. Currently on offer:

Double and Conjoint Degrees

With careful planning you may be able to do Double or Conjoint degrees. For example, you may be able to do a Bachelor of Science inComputer ScienceandBachelor ofProduct Design inApplied Immersive Game Design. More information about Double and Conjoint degrees is availablehere.

Graduate certificate

The Graduate Diploma in Sciencewill suit those who already have a Bachelor's degree but want a qualification in Computer Science.

High school students

High school students can do COSC courses via theSTARprogramme.

Courses for teachers

The department contributes to postgraduate teaching for educators. See ourComputer Science educationpage for courses.

Postgraduate learning

See ourpostgraduate informationpage for all postgraduate qualifications offered by the department.
