About this course

Computer science is the systematic study of computation, information, and the design of systems that process, store, and communicate data. It encompasses theoretical foundations in algorithms and mathematical logic alongside highly practical domains such as software development, networking, data systems, and artificial intelligence. As computing has become central to virtually every aspect of modern life, the discipline has grown both in breadth and in its connections to other fields, from biology and medicine to finance, creative media, and social systems. Abertay University has a distinctive identity in computing, with particular strengths in games technology and applied computing that shape the culture and approach of its programmes. This four-year full-time computer science programme takes you through core areas including programming, data structures and algorithms, computer archite
