- Extract useful information from large corpuses of data, using software mining techniques.
- BSc (Hons) Computer Science
- BSc (Hons) Computer Science (Cybersecurity)
- BSc (Hons) Computer Science (Software Engineering)
- BSc (Hons) Computer Science (User Experience)
Modules
Year 1 In your first year, you'll take the following compulsory modules: Introduction to Programming 15 credits User Experience and the Web 15 credits Logic and Computer Architecture 15 credits Computing Project 1 15 credits Graphics 1 15 credits Algorithms 1 15 credits Identity, Agency & Environment 1 15 credits Identity, Agency & Environment 2 15 credits Year 2 In your second year, you'll take the following compulsory modules: Software Development and Design 15 credits Computing Project 2 15 credits Object Oriented Programming 15 credits Data Programming for Artificial Intelligence 15 credits Algorithms 2 15 credits The Goldsmiths Elective 15 credits Optional modules You'll then take 30 credits of optional modules (15 credits for Direct Entry students) from the following list: Networks and Operating Systems 15 credits Information Security 15 credits Goldsmiths’ Social Change Module 15 credits If you are a Direct Entry applicant and will be joining the degree in the 2nd year, you will also need to take the module 'Fundamentals of Computer Science'. Optional placement year Our degrees include an optional industrial placement year after the second year of study. You'll be responsible for securing a placement, but we can support you through this process. Although we encourage you to take the opportunity of a placement year, you can also complete your degree in three years. Year 3 (or year 4 with placement year) In your final year, you'll complete the following compulsory modules, including a project Computer Science: Final Project in Computer Science 45 credits Artificial Intelligence 15 credits Neural Networks 15 credits Machine Learning 15 credits Data Mining 15 credits You'll then use your remaining 15 credits to take an optional module from a list provided annually by the Department of Computing. *Please note that due to staff research commitments not all of these modules may be available every year.
Assessment method
You’ll be assessed by a variety of methods, depending on your module choices. These include coursework, examinations, group work and projects. If you opt for an industrial placement year, your placement tutor will assess your work. If you complete the placement year successfully, you earn the endorsement 'with work experience' on your degree certificate.
