Bachelor of Science (Honours) - Computing (G400)

Explore systems architecture, programming design, coding, platform technologies, software engineering and other areas of computer science in this fast-paced and wide-ranging degree that prepares students for a rewarding career in the computing industry. In an industry where new hardware, software and production technologies are emerging at breakneck speed, computing experts with the ability to apply creativity to existing and future problem areas are in high demand. This practical programme at Abertay University focuses on software development for mobile, desktop and web platforms, with emphasis on constructing effective, efficient, robust, and maintainable solutions.

Abertay's computing degree is designed to equip students with high-level subject-specific knowledge, as well as the practical and transferable skills they need to gain a foothold in the computing industry or proceed to further advanced study. Tutorials and lab-based activities increase the student's understanding of the subject and allow them to develop their competence and confidence in technological and theoretical work. During the course, students will also participate in team-based activities, including a group project in year 3 where they specify, plan and implement a software product.
