The MSc Computer Science at UCL provides students with a strong foundation in computer science theory and practical software engineering skills, including teamwork for industrial or research clients. Students will complement their first degree with computer science knowledge, which can lead to interdisciplinary industrial positions or PhD research.As a student on the MSc Computer Science, you will learn the fundamental concepts of how computers work, by studying computer architecture, databases, data structures, and algorithms. You will develop programming skills in modern languages and gain practical knowledge in areas such as human-computer interaction, application design, and software engineering. You will develop skills in team working, project planning and communication though working in small groups developing software for both industrial and research clients. You will be able to focus and specialise though optional modules, which may include subjects such as functional programming, entrepreneurship, and machine learning.
