Computer Science degrees in Clearing at UCA

Our Computer Science degree is built with games, film, immersive media and interactive systems in mind. You’ll collaborate with students in these industries and get first-hand feedback on your work from potential future colleagues (or customers.)

You'll also be studying alongside postgraduate and PhD researchers, not just fellow first years. That proximity to people testing ideas at a higher level brings a different kind of intellectual energy to your learning – and a sharper sense of where the field is heading.
