Bachelor of Science (Hons) in Computer Science

What you will learn in a glance?

In the first year, students will learn fundamental skills required by IT professionals. They will develop a basic understanding of programming, mathematical concepts, and algorithmic skills. Specialized modules will provide them with basic knowledge of underlying computer systems such as computer architecture, operating systems, networking, and databases. The curriculum will also focus on developing personal and organizational skills, as well as nurturing creativity and innovation. By the end of this level, students will have a strong foundation in programming, mathematics, algorithms, and a basic understanding of computer systems.

Moving into the second year, students will acquire a broader range of skills in computer science. They will gain a better understanding of designing and implementing new software and solving computing problems through theoretical and algorithmic foundations. The curriculum will cover platform technologies and application development, providing students with a solid understanding of these areas. Creativity, innovation, and independent learning will continue to be nurtured to prepare students for the workplace. By the end of this level, students will have developed expertise in software design, problem-solving, platform technologies, and application development.

During the 16-week internship or industrial training, students will have the opportunity to apply their knowledge and skills in a real-world working environment. This practical experience will help students bridge the gap between theory and practice, preparing them for a smooth transition from the classroom to the professional world. The internship will allow them to enhance their skills, gain industry insights, and develop the necessary professional competencies.

In the third year, students will build upon the foundation of previous studies and industrial experience. Students will further extend their familiarity with computer science and refine their personal and professional development. They will focus on advanced programming techniques and algorithms, interface design, networking, and/or multimedia. The final year project will require students to investigate and develop a solution for a real-world problem, demonstrating their ability to combine technical knowledge, critical thinking, and analytical skills. This project will result in the creation of a personal achievement portfolio. By the end of this level, students will have advanced their expertise in computer science, specialized areas such as programming, interface design, networking, and multimedia, and demonstrated their abilities to solve complex real-world
