Master of Science [M.Sc] [Computer Science] From University of Bath

This course is designed to match the growing need for graduates who are trained in one discipline and also skilled in computer science. You’ll gain a strong foundation in programming, software development and contemporary techniques in the industry.

Along with programming experience, the course gives you a broad overview of computer science, with opportunities to specialise in a number of different research areas.

This course provides a thorough grounding in the fundamentals of computer science. There are extensive opportunities to specialise in a range of advanced areas while gaining skills in areas such as system development and enterprise. We review our curriculum constantly to ensure it remains at the leading edge.

Core ideas are introduced in years one and two. You will learn the principles of algorithms and programming, covering three key paradigms: imperative, functional and object-oriented.

You will study mathematics and statistics underpinning modern computer science; how a modern computer architecture is organised; concurrent and networked computing; and the foundations of human-computer interaction, cybersecurity and theoretical and data-driven computer science.

A key component of year two is the software team project in which you work with others to develop an application for a real-world client with help from an industrial mentor.

Computing has become integral to our society, playing a critical part in almost every business worldwide. That’s why qualified specialists in this field are highly sought after by many different industries.

This program is wide-ranging, exploring advanced topics in computer science which will equip you with the understanding and practical skills to succeed in a variety of careers.

Building on your existing knowledge of computer science, you’ll develop the theoretical and practical skills required to design and implement larger, more complex systems using state-of-the-art technologies. You’ll even have the chance to work as an integral member of one of our research groups when you develop your main project.
