Course details

Course description

Mathematics forms the foundation of computer science. With the increasing scale of computing systems, and growing volumes of data, we are developing and using more sophisticated mathematical techniques every day.

This programme aims to give you a thorough understanding of mathematics and computing to allow you to operate at the cutting edge of:

* computer and data science

* machine learning

* artificial intelligence

We offer a wide range of courses delivered by leaders in their field. You will have the flexibility to focus on the areas of computer science, artificial intelligence and mathematics that interest you most.

**Only apply to one Informatics programme**

We usually consider a maximum of two applications to programmes in the College of Science and Engineering as this helps ensure we make offers to as many students as possible.

However, if you are applying for an Informatics programme, due to high demand, we can only accept one application for a programme in this subject area. You can use your second application for any other Science and Engineering programme.
