Bachelor of Science (with Honours) - BSc (Hons)University of Aberdeen
Course details
Course description
This degree brings together two very closely linked subjects and offers a tremendous degree programme to those with a strong interest in both. This programme follows a number of the core Computing Science courses undertaken as part of the straight BSc Computing Science degree and introduces key Physics components throughout all four years, in the form of a range of core and optional Physics courses. These include: Calculus, Optics and Electronics, Relativity and Quantum Mechanics, The Solid State, Nuclear and Semiconductor Physics and Modelling Theory. The final year project is a joint computing and physics project.

Entry requirements
Scottish Higher minimum entry requirements: A,A,B,B
AABB Applicants who achieve AABB or better over S4 and S5 are likely to be made an offer of admission. This may be unconditional or it may be conditional, dependent upon academic profile. Good performance in additional Highers / Advanced Highers may be required. Note: we do not double count a Higher and Advanced Higher in the same subject, but we do consider that a B at Adv Higher is equivalent to an A grade at Higher National 5 at grades C or above in English, Mathematics (but not Applications of Mathematics) and in either Chemistry or Physics Highers Maths and Physics required.
Scottish Advanced Higher minimum entry requirements: A,B,B
For Second Year entry a minimum of 3 AH at ABB, a minimum of two must be Mathematics and at least one other science subject (including the subject(s) nominated for Honours). Standard Grades 1, 2 or 3 or Int 2, or National 5 at grades A, B or C in English, Mathematics and in either Chemistry or Physics.
