Computer Science and Mathematics

About this course

Computer science and mathematics is a combination that gives you two of the most powerful analytical frameworks available, and the ability to move between them. Mathematics is the language in which the foundations of computing are written: algorithms, data structures, computational complexity, cryptography, and the statistical underpinnings of machine learning are all mathematical at heart. Computer science gives you the tools to build systems, write software, design architectures, and implement the ideas that mathematical reasoning generates. Together, the two disciplines develop graduates with both theoretical rigour and practical capability. The University of York's three-year full-time Computer Science and Mathematics degree carries a typical entry tariff of 136 points. The programme includes a sandwich year option, a year abroad option, and work placement opportunities, meaning you
