About this course

Computer science at Warwick is one of the most established and respected programmes of its kind in the UK, designed for students who combine a genuine talent for mathematics with a passion for understanding how computing works and how it can be pushed further. Computer science is not primarily a vocational training in software tools; it is a rigorous intellectual discipline concerned with algorithms, data structures, computation theory, programming languages, systems, and the mathematical foundations that underpin them. Understanding these foundations is what allows the best practitioners to build systems and solve problems that go beyond what existing tools were designed for. This three-year, full-time programme at Warwick includes a placement year and a year abroad, both of which provide significant opportunities for professional and personal development.
