MSc Computer Science and Applications
The MSc in Computer Science and Applications (CSA) is an exciting interdisciplinary course that offers a choice from a range of advanced topics at the frontiers of Computer Science, together with their application to business, technology, science and education.
It has been designed for graduates with a Computer Science or scientific and computational background, and provides a solid preparation for the use of cutting-edge tools, techniques and technologies in an industrial or business context. The course also provides an excellent grounding for further research, either through PhD study or in a commercial setting.
The course comprises a taught component in the first two terms, with an engaging syllabus including:
- Agent-Based Systems
- High Performance Computing
- Multimedia Processing, Communications and Storage
- Computational Biology
- Algorithmic Game Theory
- Simulation and Modelling
The taught component is followed by a dissertation project in the third term which offers the oppertunity to specialise and explore areas of your interest in grater depth. Dissertations may be research focussed or directeed to the applications of advanced topics in Computer Science. Additionally there is scope for commercial support from a wide range of industrial partners.
