Course summary

This accredited degree provides both the theoretical and practical knowledge required to become a part of the exciting and dynamic world of computer science which lies at the heart of almost all aspects of modern life.

On this course you will develop transferable technical, analytical and professional skills, supported by a broad awareness of current technology trends. The course covers a mixture of core techniques and concepts and evolving, technology-based subject matter.

Graduates are able to objectively analyse problems and develop appropriate computational solutions. Your detailed understanding of technology will make you suitable for a range of professional careers and sought-after by employers.

The year of study at a university abroad will give you the opportunity to broaden your experience and learning, and strengthen your transferable skills.

Career prospects

Skilled computer scientists are in extremely high demand. This means the employment prospects for graduates in the computing and ICT industry are very strong. You will be equipped with transferrable skills that open doors to careers in many sectors.

Recent statistics show that the vast majority of our graduates are following their chosen career paths in roles such as Software Engineer, Web Developer, Computer Programmer, Associate Software Developer, Business Analyst and Systems Development Officer.

Many go on to work for companies including Airbus Group, Amazon, BBC, BT, Cardiff University, Capgemini, Confused.com, GCHQ, IBM, Lloyds Banking Group, MoD, Morgan Stanley, Sky, South Wales Police and Thomson Reuters. Others have chosen further study or research at Cardiff or other top universities.

Placements

You will have the opportunity to study abroad in year three of the programme. To be considered for study abroad you must normally have a 60% average in your year one modules, with no failed credits from the first semester of year two. You will receive academic counselling on the options for studying abroad, and the final decision will be at the discretion of the School.

This exciting opportunity to study Computer Science in a new environment and culture will allow you to develop the skills necessary to live independently outside the UK, and experience and appreciate the culture and life styles of the host country, adding valuable experience and skills desired by employers.
