5 Years On Campus Bachelors Program
Royal Holloway University of LondonOur five-year integrated masters course offers a thorough grounding in the latest trends and technologies in the rapidly evolving world of computer science, with the benefits of a sought-after year in industry. You will have the chance to showcase your abilities in an extended final year project and this course is recommended if you want to go on to postgraduate research or pursue a high-level technical career, or just wish to delve deeper into the subject.
We cover all the essentials of application development and explore the fundamentals of computing, and we also introduce you to a host of advanced theories and technologies, from computer games, machine learning and digital sound and music, to intelligent agents and multi-agents, computational optimisation, advanced data communications, digital forensics and more. From the outset you will be experimenting with programming games, robots, Gadgeteer kits, Subversion, JUnit testing, Scrum-based Agile software and more, in our well-equipped laboratories. The course’s modular structure gives you the flexibility to tailor your degree to your interests. Your supervised work placement can be completed at the end of year 2 or 3. At the end of year 1 you will have the option of transferring onto one of our specialist pathways (Artificial Intelligence, Information Security or Distributed & Networked Computing). Transferring onto our Software Engineering pathway requires previous programming experience and early permission to take the Software Development course in year 1, rather than Object-oriented Programming.
A distinctive feature of this program is the integrated year-long industry placement, offering students invaluable hands-on experience in a professional setting. This practical exposure allows students to apply their academic knowledge to real-world challenges, enhancing their employability upon graduation.
The curriculum emphasizes both theoretical and applied aspects of computer science, preparing students for diverse career paths in the evolving tech industry. Graduates have secured positions at reputable companies, reflecting the university's commitment to connecting students with potential employers. Notably, Royal Holloway's Computer Science department was ranked 19th in the UK by the Times Higher Education World University Rankings in 2019, underscoring its commitment to excellence in research and education.
