Computing Science

About this course

Computing science is one of the most intellectually wide-ranging disciplines in modern academia, encompassing the theoretical foundations of computation, the engineering of complex software systems, the design of human-computer interfaces, the development of algorithms, the study of computer and network architectures, and the rapidly evolving fields of artificial intelligence, data science, and information retrieval. At its core it is concerned with how computation can be used to solve problems and understand phenomena, and it draws on mathematics, logic, and engineering as its foundations. At the University of Glasgow, this four-year full-time programme is delivered by one of the UK's leading computing science departments, with genuine strength across the breadth of the discipline. You will build a thorough foundation in programming, algorithms, data structures, software engineering, a
