Computer Science with Science Foundation Year

About this course

Computer science is the study of computation, algorithms, data structures, software systems, and the principles that make reliable, secure, and efficient computing possible. It is a discipline with profound theoretical depth and vast practical application, underpinning everything from the software on your phone to the systems that run financial markets, healthcare infrastructure, and the emerging technologies of artificial intelligence and quantum computing. Learning computer science means learning to think rigorously about problems and to express solutions in forms that machines can execute and that human engineers can understand and maintain. At Lincoln this four-year full-time programme begins with a science foundation year, which provides the mathematical and scientific grounding needed before the main degree begins and makes the programme accessible to students who may not yet have
