- The BSc (Hons) in Computer Science is a four-year course run by the School of Computer Science. The course is designed to ground a student in both the theory and practice of computer science. He/she will learn to think and solve problems logically, understand the fundamental principles of how computing systems work, and be exposed to significant new technologies as well as teamwork.
- In the first two years, you will learn the basic concepts behind computer science and several different programming languages.
- Alongside computer science in the first year of the studies, he/she will be required to study at least one additional subject. In the second year, he/she can continue with this other subject or focus entirely on computer science. Find out more about how academic years are organised.
- In third year, he/she will be introduced to the foundations of logic that are relevant to computer scientists, with an emphasis on automatic reasoning and decidability, and to theories of computation and complexity, including exploring Turing machines and pushdown automata.
- one will apply software engineering concepts and practices to a substantial software engineering project as part of a team. This project runs through both semesters in third year and will prepare him/her for the workplace, where collaboration with others is essential.
- In the final year of a BSc, he/she will undertake a substantial software engineering project. He/she will design, specify and construct a medium-sized software system, or undertake a formal development and proof of such a system, under the guidance of a member of staff.
- In addition to the compulsory modules, he/she will choose from a wide variety of advanced options. Examples of Honours topics can be found in the modules information.
- The University of St Andrews operates on a flexible modular degree system by which degrees are obtained through the accumulation of credits. More information on the structure of the modules system can be found on the flexible degree structure web page.
