Extend your knowledge in your specialist area at postgraduate level with our honours programme. The Bachelor of Science (Honours) programme involves one year of full-time study, or two years of part-time study, after you have completed the requirements for the Bachelor of Science. After graduating with a BSc (Hons), it’s possible to progress to a Master of Science (MSc) degree. If you achieve First or Second Class First Division Honours in your BSc(Hons), you’ll be eligible for direct entry to a PhD. Computer Science: Whether you are interested in software engineering, systems development and evaluation, intelligent systems and informatics, or the theory of computing – we are living in an information age and have become dependent on information technology and the complex way that information is stored, transmitted and processed. Postgraduate study in Computer Science is divided into two general areas: software systems and the theory of computing. Areas of research interests open to exploration include: Algorithms and theory of computation Artificial intelligence Computational biology Computational social science Computer graphics Computer networks Computer vision Computing education and learning technologies Cyber security Data science and machine learning Human-computer interaction Internet and mobile computing Knowledge and database Parallel and distributed computing Quantum information science Software design and quality Bachelor of Science (Honours) (BSc(Hons)) in Computer Science 60 points from: COMPSCI 701 Advanced Topic in Computer Science 1 COMPSCI 702 Security for Smart Devices COMPSCI 703 or 704 Advanced Topic in Computer Science COMPSCI 705 Advanced Topics in Human-computer Interaction COMPSCI 706-710 Advanced Topic in Computer Science COMPSCI 711 Parallel and Distributed Computing COMPSCI 715 Advanced Computer Graphics COMPSCI 720 Advanced Design and Analysis of Algorithms COMPSCI 725 System Security COMPSCI 726 Network Defence and Countermeasures COMPSCI 727 Cryptographic Management COMPSCI 732 Software Tools and Techniques COMPSCI 734 Web, Mobile and Enterprise Computing COMPSCI 742 Advanced Internet: Global Data Communications COMPSCI 747 Computing Education COMPSCI 750 Computational Complexity COMPSCI 751 Advanced Topics in Database Systems COMPSCI 752 Web Data Management COMPSCI 753 Uncertainty in Data COMPSCI 760 Data Mining and Machine Learning COMPSCI 761 Advanced Topics in Artificial Intelligence COMPSCI 765 Interactive Cognitive Systems COMPSCI 767 Intelligent Software Agents COMPSCI 771 Advanced Topics in Computer Graphics and Image Processing COMPSCI 773 Intelligent Vision Systems COMPSCI 775 Advanced Multimedia Imaging COMPSCI 777 Computer Games Technology BIOINF 702 Comparative Bioinformatics 30 points: COMPSCI 789 Dissertation 30 points from 700-level courses in related subjects: Mathematics, Logic and Computation and Physics
