**Overview**<br/>In this four-year Computing Science with a Year in Industry degree, you’ll follow the BSc programme structure, and you’ll spend a year working in industry. Learn to programme the future and gain a solid foundation in a range of computing fields, including managing and storing data for banks and businesses; creating and designing action-packed games; improving web usability and user experience, or developing next- generation apps, AI, robotics, cloud computing, big data and lots, lots more. This flexible course is ideal if you’re a digital native who already lives and breathes computing. You might like solving real-world problems, or coding your next-generation apps and websites, designing your own games, or building your own hardware. <br/><br/>You’ll acquire a strong grounding in the theory of computing science, as well as gaining experience and skills in software engineering and problem solving. You’ll become a competent programmer in a range of modern general-purpose languages such as Java, Python, JavaScript, C and C++. You’ll explore the underlying principles of the subject and learn to adopt a logical, systematic approach to developing solutions to real-world problems. You’ll have the opportunity to enhance your studies by spending a year in industry – putting what you’ve learnt into practice and transforming theory into reality. <br/><br/>All our computer science courses follow an identical structure in the first two years. This means that you can easily transfer between them if you decide you want to incorporate a year abroad, a year in industry or continue to Master’s level learning. Jobs in computer sciences have one of the highest starting salaries. In core modules, you’ll cultivate the essential skills of a computing professional. And in optional modules you’ll be able to sample some of the wide range of problems that arise in both research and industry. You’ll also gain transferable skills that will help your long-term development, such as working in teams, project management and presenting ideas. <br/><br/>You’ll also benefit from our expertise in artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning, computer vision, graphics, computational biology, data science and speech processing, and software engineering and systems engineering. You’ll also learn from the latest research done at UEA. <br/><br/>IT industries are growing fast and provide various job opportunities each year. You can work as a software and computer games developer, data scientist, website designer or specialist in user experience (UX). You’ll also have huge career possibilities in cybersecurity, network and systems engineering. <br/><br/>**Disclaimer**<br/><br/>Course details are subject to change.
