Combine your studies in computer science with a Bachelor of Science, and graduate with qualifications that place you at the forefront of today's technology-driven job market.
Study this four-year dual program to obtain two qualifications in less time and graduate with in-demand skills, ready to make a difference in solving some of world's most challenging problems.
Computer science combines the theoretical studies of algorithms and data structures with the practical challenges of implementing them in hardware and software systems. Skills learnt in this program are used in fields ranging from bioinformatics to digital humanities.
You'll develop the strong analytical, logical and development skills necessary to advance computing and its applications. You can specialise in cyber security, data science, machine learning, programming languages or scientific computing.
In the science program, students can select from a broad-based set of courses, which lay the foundation for completing a specialised major in later years. Choose from a wide range of majors to develop your interdisciplinary scientific knowledge and practical skills while pursuing studies that suit your interests and ambitions, with the freedom to mix and match course combinations.
When you graduate, you can anticipate high employability rates and attractive starting salaries because of the skills and expertise you'll develop through this program.
Machine Learning
Machine learning is the study of algorithms that automatically improve performance with experience.
These algorithms allow computers do things like automatically identify and harness useful data to help decision-making, find hidden insights without being explicitly programmed where to look, and predict outcomes of certain policies to help authorities design effective policies.
You'll graduate with skills at the forefront of this massive growth area as society looks for automated and continuous improvements on how to enhance business and our lives through the use of computing systems and data.
These skills can be applied in government departments, consultancy or private sector organisations.
