    About

    What is Computer Sciences?

    A Computer Sciences degree focuses on the study of computers and computing. You will learn about algorithms, information theory, data analysis, automation, and computing theory. In simpler words, after graduating from this study programme, you will know how to write code, develop software, and create the design and structure of a computer.

    Computer Sciences Specialisations

    Computer Sciences students can specialise in various areas of this complex field of study. The most common specialisations in Computer Sciences are:

    • Software Engineering;
    • Data Science;
    • Artificial Intelligence;
    • Cybersecurity;
    • Computer Systems and Networks.

    A Bachelor's in Computer Sciences allows you to gain a well-rounded understanding of computers, which you can take in a more specific direction with a Master's degree afterwards.

    What will you learn during a Computer Sciences programme?

    Computer Sciences is a complex field of study, based on Mathematics, abstract thinking, theories, and a lot of experimentation. At the same time, a Computer Sciences degree gives you a mindset for making discoveries and constantly developing existing technology. Here's what you'll gain from this programme:

    • understanding of computer systems and networks;
    • proficiency in programming languages;
    • the ability to design and analyse algorithms;
    • knowledge of software development and database design;
    • skills in problem-solving and logical thinking.

    Common courses include:

    • Introduction to Programming, where you learn the fundamentals of coding;
    • Data Structures and Algorithms, teaches you how to organise, manipulate, and store data effectively;
    • Computer Systems, where you study the inner workings of computers and operating systems;
    • Software Engineering, which is about designing, developing, and testing software applications;
