About this course

Computer science is the discipline that underpins modern software, digital systems, and the computational technologies that have transformed how we work, communicate, and understand the world. It combines theoretical foundations in algorithms, data structures, computation, and programming languages with practical skills in software development, systems design, and the application of computing to real-world problems. The demand for computer scientists continues to grow as software becomes central to virtually every industry and organisation. At the University of Sunderland this four-year programme includes an integrated foundation year, which provides a smooth and supportive entry into degree-level computer science study. The foundation year is designed for students who are returning to education, who did not quite meet the standard entry requirements, or who want additional preparation
