Computer Science and Mathematics (with Foundation Year) FT

Study level:
Undergraduate

Course summary

In the foundation year, you’ll attain the academic and practical skills required which will enable you to progress onto the first year of your degree course, provided the relevant progression criteria are met. You will build your confidence in Biology, Engineering, Chemistry and Maths, and apply your theoretical knowledge in practical lab sessions.

Modules will include:
• Introductory Mathematics
• Intermediate Mathematics
• Foundation Science
• Foundation Engineering
• Practical and Professional Skills

Our Computer Science and Mathematics degree is current and relevant to the needs of business. Our close links with industry means that, if you wish, you’ll have the opportunity to take up job placements with some of the world’s leading companies.

We are in the process of a digital revolution. The way we interact with the world around us is changing at supersonic speed, and mathematicians and computer scientists are at the forefront of this cutting edge technology – spotting opportunities and solving problems in every area of our daily lives.

There has always been synergy between Mathematics and Computer Science and today these complementary skill sets are instrumental in creating a connected world. Throughout your course you’ll study in an informal, supportive environment which we believe is one of the reasons that pass rates on this course are so high. A large proportion of Mathematics students graduate with at least an upper-second-class degree. Our courses have consistently scored highly in the National Student Survey.
