Computer Science

About this course

Computer science is the study of computation, algorithms, data structures, programming languages, software systems, and the theoretical principles that underlie all of these. It is a discipline that ranges from highly abstract mathematical reasoning to the intensely practical craft of building systems that work reliably at scale. As computing has become the substrate on which almost every other industry now runs, computer science graduates are in demand across virtually every sector, in roles that vary from software engineering and machine learning to cybersecurity, data science, and system architecture. At King's College London, this three-year full-time programme provides an in-depth grounding in the field, covering the scientific and theoretical foundations of computing alongside practical skills across a diverse range of software platforms and programming languages.
