Computing Science with Mathematics

About this course

Computing science and mathematics is a combination that reflects the deep relationship between the two disciplines. Mathematics provides the theoretical foundations on which computing is built: logic, algorithms, data structures, probability and linear algebra all have their roots in mathematical thinking. Computing science, in turn, provides a context in which mathematical ideas find powerful application, from machine learning and cryptography to software engineering and computational modelling. Studying them together develops both rigour and applicability, producing graduates who can reason precisely and build systems that work. At the University of Aberdeen, this degree is designed for students who have a strong interest and skill in mathematics and want to understand how it applies to the computing science industry. You will develop the theoretical and practical dimensions of both f
