Overview

At the Science - Computer Science program offered by University of New South Wales you’ll study the design, construction and use of computer systems. You’ll examine computing tools, operating systems and computer hardware, and study the representation of data, data structures and the design of algorithms.

By combining these two industry-aligned degrees, you’ll develop highly-sought after skills to open up a wider range of opportunities after graduation. With artificial intelligence and security engineering becoming increasingly embedded in our day-to-day lives, graduates with advanced knowledge in these areas will be invaluable assets to any organisation, government body or non-profit.
