Computer Science
Learn from staff at the forefront of research and work on real-world projects with industry mentors in a department that emphasises rigour, practical application and innovation.
Why study Computer Science at Bristol? Our courses provide you with a thorough understanding of the fundamentals of computer science and their application. You will work with staff involved in the latest research, gaining in-depth knowledge from experts working at the forefront of the subject. Project work is central: you will work in teams on real-world applications and focus on your own individual project in your final year. We work closely with industry, enabling you to gain knowledge from leading companies, including working with industrial mentors and the opportunity to spend time with them on internships.
Choice and discovery underpin our courses. You design your degree around a set of core units, complementing these with choices selected from a diverse and expanding set of optional units. We value enterprise and creativity and we give you opportunities to excel in a range of areas, from social enterprise projects to starting your own business.
Computing provides a route into many different career paths and our courses provide a balance between cutting-edge topics and technical and transferable skills, such as teamwork, communication and entrepreneurship. Many of our students apply their knowledge by starting their own businesses, supported by the department. Our graduates are highly regarded
Accreditation
by computer-related employers such as Apple, Google, Microsoft, IBM, Hewlett Packard, Logica and Cisco, but also in other sectors and organisations, such as Amazon, BAE Systems, GCHQ and Bloomberg.

BSc/MEng Computer Science A-levels A*AA (AAB†
) IB 38 (34† )
These courses provide a thorough grounding in the fundamentals of computer science combined with opportunities to specialise in application areas. Core ideas are introduced in years one and two. You will cover the principles of programming and algorithms, including: how a modern computer works; computational theory and how to design programming languages; concurrent systems and networks; and machine learning and pattern recognition. A key component of year two (year three for MEng students) is the software group project in which you work in a team to deliver an application to a client, with help from an industrial mentor. You can take options in human-computer interaction, complexity theory and the origins of computing, as well as units from across the University. In your final year you will specialise in application areas and undertake an individual project, with opportunities to work with industrial and research partners.
MEng Computer Science with Study Abroad A-levels A*AA (AAB†
) IB 38 (34† )
This course follows the structure of our MEng Computer Science, but gives you the opportunity to spend your third year at an English-speaking university abroad. During your year abroad you will study computer science topics that parallel, as far as possible, our course at Bristol, before returning to Bristol for your fourth year. We have links with universities in the US, Hong Kong, Australia and other countries.
MEng Computer Science with Study in Continental Europe A-levels A*AA (AAB†
) IB 38 (34† )
This course follows the structure of the MEng Computer Science, but gives you the opportunity to spend your third year at a partner university in a European country, such as Austria, Spain or Italy. During your year in Europe you will study computer science topics that parallel, as far as possible, the third year of our course. You will return to Bristol for the final year of your course.
