This course shares its first stage with our other related BSc degrees to give you a foundation in the subject while providing a platform for specialist study in the second and third stages. The course is broadly based yet carries enough depth to provide credible vocational skills; because of the wide range of courses taught in the department a number of special equipment is accessible in areas such as biometrics, robotics or computer graphics, which allows you to encounter the context of use of various concepts in Computer Science. Computer Science is a complex and wide-ranging subject, and includes the study of computation theory, the design of systems and artificial intelligence. You will concentrate on essential areas such as systems architecture and security, acquire practical programming, modelling and software development skills before focusing on a chosen specialist area for your final stage project.<br/><br/>**Why choose this course?**<br/>- Learn a broad-based range of subjects but in enough depth to give you high value vocational skills<br/><br/><br/>- Study in a carefully structured but flexible way, sharing the first foundation stage with our other related BSc degrees before specialising in the second and third stages<br/><br/><br/>- Develop your practical skills in a variety of programming languages<br/><br/><br/>- Gain confidence in the use of specialist biometric, robotic and computer graphic equipment<br/><br/><br/>- Explore the latest developments in artificial intelligence<br/><br/><br/>- Challenge yourself as you decide which specialist area you would like to focus on<br/><br/><br/>- Benefit from studying with highly qualified specialists in dedicated laboratories using the latest hi-tech equipment<br/>
