BSc (Hons) Computer Science (Foundation Entry)

Computers are a ubiquitous part of our lives. On our Computer Science Foundation Entry Degree, you get to study the systems and software that permeate our work and leisure. Foundation Entry degree courses are ideal if you’ve got the ability to study for a degree, but don’t have the necessary formal qualifications to directly join an honours programme. They are a great stepping stone to a full degree. You’ll study how to design and develop the systems and software that connect us all. There’s an emphasis on software development, including databases and user interface design, and a range of options from AI to the Internet of Things. When you qualify as a Computer Scientist you will be equipped with highly desirable skills, enabling you to apply to work in a diverse range of industries. Learn how to apply computational thinking, study databases and human computer interaction and participate in a team-based software development projects to apply your project management skills. You’ll explore the legal responsibilities of software developers and learn how to apply industry-standard software development techniques to modern applications; to manage software projects; and to program effectively in C. This degree will develop your programming and analysis skills, understanding of computer and network technology, and security.
