Progression Summary

On our Computer Science BSc course, you will gain an in-depth understanding of computer-based information systems in the heart of a connected London. The first two years of the course focus on the foundations of computer science and will equip you with the skills to develop a software system as part of a team – something that will serve you well for your future career. The third year allows you to specialise your knowledge by selecting from a range of modules, and showcase your talents by completing an individual project. The BSc in Computer Science will allow you to understand the underlying principles of a range of Computer Science dimensions, including: • Software Engineering (e.g. programming skills and technologies, as well as planning, implementation, and maintenance of large software projects). • Algorithms and Optimisation (e.g. analysis and benchmarking of software, algorithmic techniques). • Cybersecurity (e.g. cryptography and Information security). • Systems Engineering (e.g. real-time and embedded systems, communication protocols, and systemslevel programming). • Foundations of Computing (e.g. programming paradigms, and computational models). • Fundamentals of Artificial Intelligence (e.g., formal logics, search techniques, machine learning). It will also provide you with the background knowledge and skills required to become a successful professional able to work in a range of exciting roles (see Careers Prospects). You will also have the opportunity to transfer to the study abroad pathway and spend your 3rd year at a partner institution before returning to King’s for your final year. This depends on you reaching a certain grade average and being accepted by a Partner University. Women in STEM Scholarship The Faculty funds a scholarship for female undergraduate applicants, as part of its commitment to increasing the representation of women in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics).
