Bachelor of Science in Logic and Computation

The University of Auckland

If you have a mind for science and you’re keen to keep your options open, then the BSc is the degree for you. With many undergraduate majors in a wide range of subject areas, the BSc will allow you to incorporate different areas of interest and expertise. As well as strongly emphasising transferable skills to improve your employment opportunities, this programme will expose you to cutting-edge technologies and provide a gateway to independent research. Throughout your undergraduate degree you’ll be taught by knowledgeable scientists, many of whom are major contributors in their field. You're able to choose from a wide range of subject areas, and you'll also add a capstone course to your programme. The capstone course is student-led, and it's your opportunity to integrate and apply your learning to a real-world problem in your chosen subject area.If you have a flexible mind that’s capable of creative, speculative thought, along with precise calculation, problem solving and design, then Logic and Computation is a great subject for you. It’s a combination of courses from Computer Science, Linguistics, Mathematics and Philosophy. Studying Logic and Computation can help you develop conceptual and analytical skills. You’ll examine the structure, design and limitations of symbolic representations and procedures in both human thought and computer software. Logic and Computation is taught by experts in both the Faculty of Science and the Faculty of Arts. We are the only university in New Zealand to offer this undergraduate programme.
