Computer Science and Mathematics (with a year in industry)

About this course

Computer science and mathematics is one of the most powerful academic combinations available, bringing together the algorithmic and systems thinking of computing with the abstract rigour and depth of pure and applied mathematics. Computer science without mathematics tends to remain at the surface of what computation is and why it works; mathematics without computing misses the transformative way in which algorithms and computational thinking have become central to mathematical practice. Together they equip you with both the theoretical foundations and the practical capabilities that the most demanding roles in technology and research require. At York you will study this four-year full-time programme, which includes a year in industry. That industrial year extends the degree significantly, placing you in a professional computing or technology environment where the mathematical and comput
