Computer Science

About this course

Computer science is the discipline that underpins the digital world, concerned with the theory and practice of computation: how problems can be represented, how algorithms can solve them efficiently, how software is designed and built to be reliable, and how hardware and software systems interact. It is a field of both deep intellectual content, drawing on mathematics and logic, and immediate practical relevance, since the systems that computer scientists design and build are central to almost every aspect of modern life. At Southampton Solent University, this three-year full-time programme is accredited by BCS, the Chartered Institute for IT, which provides independent assurance of the programme's quality and relevance to the profession. The degree includes a foundation year, making it accessible to students who are building the technical and mathematical foundations needed for compute
