Core ideas are introduced in years one and two. during the Computer Science programme from University of Bristol , you will cover the principles of programming and algorithms, including:
- how a modern computer works;
- computational theory and how to design programming languages;
- concurrent systems and networks;
- machine learning and pattern recognition.
A key component of year two is a software group project in which you work in teams to deliver an application to a client, with help from an industrial mentor. You can also take options in human-computer interaction (HCI), complexity theory and the origins of computing, as well as units from across the University.
In year three you will specialise in application areas and undertake an individual project, with opportunities to work with industrial and research partners.
