Taught by discipline specialists and informed by industry, this MSci brings together the complementary fields of computer science and mathematics. It offers opportunities to specialise and to engage with the cutting-edge research being carried out in both departments.,The MSci Computer Science and Mathematics degree is meticulously crafted to equip students with the foundational knowledge and practical skills required to thrive in the constantly changing data-driven workplace. In our rapidly evolving world, the field of computer science stands as a driving force behind transformative technological breakthroughs that have reshaped our lives for the better. The skills demanded by today's dynamic tech sector demand a strong knowledge in mathematical fundamentals, statistics, and machine learning. During the first two years you will follow the same course structure as the BSc with an equal balance of Computer Science and Mathematics to ensure that the programme provides students with the essential foundation. From the third year, the MSci introduces a wider range of modules and an advanced project in the final year. Cap off your academic journey with a choice between undertaking an advanced project, where you tackle a theoretical area or an applied problem in-depth , or our distinctive interdisciplinary enterprise module where you can delve into an area that resonates with your passions and leverages the skills honed within the course. You will be taught by passionate researchers with diverse areas of expertise such as artificial intelligence, data science, fundamental algorithms, statistical uncertainty, statistical uncertainty, applied statistics for large-scale applications and applied algebra. The final-year advanced project is an opportunity to fully engage with the cutting-edge research being carried out in the departments. State-of-the-art facilities further enhance the learning experience, providing students with access to cutting-edge resources and opportunities to engage in innovative research projects.The Year 1 curriculum provides a foundation in the fundamentals of computer science, pure mathematics, statistics, and probability providing robust groundwork for advanced study in subsequent years. Year 2 allows students to embark on an exploration of a diverse array of innovative technological applications. At the same time, this can be underpinned with a deep mathematical grounding in statistics and machine learning to provide the foundation on their academic journey for more advanced topics in statistics, artificial intelligence and data science or an alternative grounding in abstraction with applications in theoretical computer science. The flexible structure, coupled with an array of optional modules, empowers you to tailor your academic trajectory in alignment with your evolving interests. Whether completing the programme in three years, opting for a placement year, or embarking on a year abroad, the choice is yours.Course structureYear 1 modulesCore modules:Computational Thinking explores the breadth of computer science and the ways in which the different topics are linked. You will learn the importance of computation and computational thinking in the modern world and the impact it has on technology advances in different settings.Algorithms and Data Structures introduces the theory and practice of problem-solving in computing through the development of algorithms and their associated data structures, for common computer science problems. Content included machine modelling, control flow structures and analysis of algorithms.Calculus builds on ideas of differentiation and integration in A level mathematics. The module begins with functions of a single variable before moving on to functions of several variables. Topics include methods of solving ordinary and partial differential equations, and an introduction to Taylor
