Bachelor in Computer Science

4 Years On Campus Bachelors Program

La Salle – Universitat Ramon Llull

Program Overview

The Bachelor in Computer Engineering at La Salle Campus Barcelona (Universitat Ramon Llull) is designed for students who want to turn their passion for technology into real-world solutions. This programme blends strong engineering foundations with hands-on projects in software, hardware, networks, and emerging technologies, preparing you to design and build the digital systems that power modern life.

Curriculum Structure

First Year

Your journey begins with the building blocks of computing and engineering. You will study modules such as Introduction to Computers, where you explore digital systems and computer architecture, and Programming Methodology and Technology, where you learn structured programming and problem-solving using professional coding practices. This year ensures you develop a strong technical base and logical thinking skills essential for advanced engineering work.

Second Year

In the second year, you move deeper into how software and systems truly operate. Through subjects like Data Structures and Algorithms and Operating Systems, you learn how to organise data efficiently, design robust programs, and understand how computers manage hardware and software resources. You also begin working with Networks and Systems Design, gaining insight into how connected technologies function in the real world.

Third Year

By the third year, you start applying your knowledge to modern industry challenges. You study areas such as Software Engineering, Database Systems, and Computer Networks, while developing practical projects that simulate professional engineering environments. This is where your skills come together — coding, system design, teamwork, and solution building.

Fourth Year

Your final year is about mastery and specialisation. You tackle advanced topics in Cybersecurity, Distributed Systems, and Emerging Technologies, and complete a Final Degree Project, where you design and implement a full engineering solution. By graduation, you are ready for professional practice, innovation roles, or postgraduate study.
