Study both computer science and maths in this combined course and leave with an advanced Masters level qualification. You will also benefit from spending a placement year in industry, furthering your knowledge, networking and getting real-life experience of the field.<br/><br/>Computer science is founded upon maths, and the study of the two together allows you to explore topics core to both while gaining an insight into how they intersect. Maths influences computer science, from designing and analysing efficient computer programs to developing formal proofs that a piece of software does what was intended. This is especially important, for example, if the software is being used to fly a plane. Increasingly, computer science is also being used to find solutions to mathematical issues. Computers are used to solve long-standing mathematical problems, as they can help visualise complex numerical data, search for solutions, and make number manipulation faster. We have fantastic links with industry, and this allows us to give you exposure to the latest developments in the real world, as well as in our research. You may work on projects that have been specified by companies such as IBM or BT, who will then take any solutions and could use them within their business. Our Industrial Advisory Board helps to steer our courses to make sure that what we teach is up-to-date and relevant to todays workplace. This means that when the time comes for you to get a job, you will be able to adapt quickly in the workplace, due to our principled and relevant teaching. This course is also available as a four-year degree without the year in industry.
