About this course

Computer science is the systematic study of computation: what can be computed, how to compute it efficiently, and how to build the systems that make computation possible. It draws on mathematics, logic, and engineering to address problems that range from the deeply theoretical to the intensively practical, encompassing algorithms, data structures, programming languages, operating systems, networks, artificial intelligence, and software design. Almost every sector of the modern economy depends on computing in ways that are growing more complex year by year, making computer scientists among the most sought-after graduates across the full range of industries. At the University of Kent, this four-year, full-time degree is structured around a year in industry, giving you the opportunity to spend a substantial period working with an employer before you return to complete your final year.
