This programme is a mainstream computer science programme designed to provide an effective and well-balanced introduction to the whole field, rather than a more specialised introduction to selected themes. It aims to cover everything that is indispensable for a first degree in computer science. However, it also introduces you to fundamental areas of management, such as economics, project management, marketing and human resource management. It is aimed at students who see themselves in a managerial role within the field of computer science. In addition, you wil spend the third year at an overseas university. This gives you the opportunity to supplement your study with topics that are included in foreign curricula, as well as experiencing another culture both socially and professionally.

The Careers Service and the Department of Informatics run an 18 week careers programme for Informatics students which includes skills sessions and visits from top employers. Our graduates go on to successful careers in a range of organisations including banking, finance, management, and the major software houses, where they work mainly on analysis, design, implementation and maintenance of software applications and systems. Many of our graduates alternatively choose further study.
