MComp Computing Science with Study Abroad
About this course
Computing Science with Study Abroad is a degree that develops the full breadth of computational thinking alongside the personal and intellectual benefits of an international academic experience. Computing science is concerned with the principles, design and implementation of computational systems, from the mathematical foundations of algorithms and data structures through to the practical development of software applications, databases, user interfaces, artificial intelligence systems and cloud-based services. It is a discipline that combines rigorous theoretical foundations with highly practical skills, and its graduates are in demand across every sector of the modern economy. At the University of East Anglia, this four-year full-time programme follows the BSc Computing Science programme structure while incorporating a year abroad that gives you the opportunity to study in a different national and academic context. You will build a solid foundation across a range of computing fields, including data management, game design, web and user experience development, artificial intelligence, robotics and big data, developing the versatile technical skills that the computing industry demands. The year abroad enriches your education with international exposure and the kind of intellectual flexibility and independence that extended study outside the UK develops. Computing Science graduates are consistently among the most sought-after in the graduate market. Technology companies, financial services, healthcare, retail, gaming, entertainment, the public sector and virtually every other industry employ computing graduates in significant numbers. Roles include software engineer, data scientist, machine learning engineer, systems architect, web developer, cybersecurity analyst, and technical project manager. Many graduates go on to postgraduate study in computer science, artificial intelligence or data science to develop specialist expertise.
