What you study

Students study programming, data structures and algorithms, discrete mathematics, databases, operating systems, networks, software engineering, artificial intelligence and the design of computing systems.

Career paths

Paths include software, web and application development, systems analysis, software testing and test automation, databases and cloud systems. Graduates can also move into data or AI roles after developing suitable mathematical foundations and practical projects.

Common misconceptions

Computer science is not simply learning one programming language; its core is algorithms, problem-solving and systems design.
The degree alone does not guarantee a software role; projects, internships and sustained practice are important.
