Computer Science and Mathematics UCL

Overview

The 4-year integrated Computer Science and Mathematics MEng programme offered by UCL will enable you to master the mathematics at the heart of all modern technology.

Designed to enable skillful mathematicians to apply advanced mathematical reasoning to the analysis of computational systems, this course requires detailed study of a wide range of topics including algebra, logic, discrete mathematics, information theory and statistics.

While accessing UCL Computer Science’s most mathematically complex curriculum, you’ll also study core computing modules in programming, algorithms and computer architecture. As a result, you’ll develop advanced and highly specialised skills, learning to investigate and implement theoretical methods for interacting with vast datasets – and in the process, you’ll help set a new basis for the future of computing.

You’ll work closely with other students on the course, supporting each other’s learning through interactive reading groups and seminars. You'll also have ample opportunities for personal guidance from module leaders as you apply research techniques to solve practical problems.

Careers

As a graduate of this course, you’ll possess a multidisciplinary combination of Master’s level mathematical and computer science knowledge and skills. You’ll have substantial experience in solving complex problems across a range of real-life scenarios and contexts.

Your specialist skills and research experience will open the doors to a wide range of roles and industries, particularly those involved in research-intensive activities at innovative enterprises, leading product development, and Research & Development projects.
