Study options

Apply for this degree with any of the following options. Take care to use the correct UCAS code - it may not be possible to change your selection later.

Year in industry

Want to pick up some solid work experience while applying and improving your skills? Apply for our Computer Science BSc with Industrial Experience to spend your third year working for a public- or private-sector organisation in a role directly related to your studies.

Our students have worked with companies including:

  • Accenture
  • Canon Europe
  • GlaxoSmithKline
  • IBM
  • The Walt Disney Company.

Find out more about degrees with industrial experience.

Please note that placements are highly competitive and awarded based on your application, academic track record and performance at interview. If you are not successful in securing a placement, your third year will be spent at Queen Mary completing your studies.

MSci

Take an extra year to carry out in-depth, real-world research alongside advanced modules. Apply for our Computer Science MSci, ideal if you plan to go into academic or industrial research and development.

Year abroad

Go global and study abroad as part of your degree – apply for our Computer Science BSc or MSci with a Year Abroad. Queen Mary has links with universities in Europe, North America, Asia and Australia (partnerships vary for each degree programme).

Find out more about study abroad opportunities at Queen Mary and what the progression requirements are.

You can do either a year in industry or a year abroad - you cannot combine these options.
