The field of computing science encompasses a broad spectrum: from coding and developing extensive software architectures, to crafting and assessing user interfaces, computational methods, hardware and networking infrastructures, machine intelligence, data management and large-scale analytics systems. In 2017, the School of Computing Science established the groundbreaking Centre for Computing Science Education, demonstrating our dedication to pioneering advancements in teaching methodologies.
Our computing science alumni receive accreditation from the British Computer Society (BCS), The Chartered Institute for IT, fulfilling the educational criteria for Chartered IT Professional (CITP) status. For four out of the past nine years, the School has achieved top marks in the National Student Survey for student contentment. Our curriculum is developed and delivered by field-leading academics. The School's innovative Centre for Computing Science Education, founded in 2017, underscores our focus on educational excellence and forward-thinking approaches.
Alumni secure positions with global corporations as well as emerging local and international ventures. We provide active assistance to graduates launching their own businesses. Visit our LinkedIn Channel to see where our graduates are employed, and check DiscoverUni to review our outstanding graduate employment rates and compensation figures.
Bachelor's degree holders qualify for BCS membership and, with appropriate professional experience, can pursue Chartered IT Professional (CITP) status along with partial Chartered Scientist (CSci) or Chartered Engineer (CEng) credentials. MSci graduates qualify for full CITP and partial CSci recognition. Our bachelor's programs carry the Euro-Inf Bachelor Quality certification, while MSci degrees hold the Euro-Inf Master Quality Label.
