About this course
You will gain practical experience in the analysis and understanding of problems, systems and structures through case studies. As a result, you'll be equipped to deal with the intense demands of modern computer science and to respond with solutions that meet the needs of commerce, industry, or research.
Graduates from this Computer Science course are equipped for employment in industry, commerce or research with proficiency in the key theoretical and practical areas in computer science, including their application to modern software systems development.
A good first degree in a computing-related subject or in a suitable numerate subject (e.g. mathematics, physics, engineering, information systems or multimedia) that includes software development experience.
Or, substantial commercial/industrial experience including software development using modern programming languages and design.
What you should know about this course
You will gain the practical skills and theoretical knowledge for careers in the expanding field of Computer Science.
You can specialise in one of two exciting pathways: Data Science or Network Engineering.
University of Greenwich is an academic partner with The Council for Registered Ethical Security Testers (CREST).
The University of Greenwich has a long-standing relationship with the British Computer Society (BCS), which accredits our computing degree programmes. As this programme was extensively updated in 2019, it has a current designation of Partial Chartered Information Technology Professional (CITP) and Partial Chartered Engineer (CEng) accreditation for the 2019 intake. The accreditation status is expected to be confirmed in spring 2022 after the first cohort of students graduate. Students will be kept updated on the status of this. In the very unlikely event that this does not progress as expected the university will support students with individual BCS membership applications at the point of graduation.
