Why study Computing?

For about half a century now, Computing has been the heart of progress in nearly everything. The first space flight was possible because of Computing power and the ability it brought to calculate and process information at a faster pace than any individual or group of humans ever could.

But of course Computing in the modern era makes the efforts of fifty years ago look prehistoric. As we find more new ways to compute at faster rates and with ever smaller technology, it seems there’s no limit to progress. It’s inspirational.

Careers around Computing offer a front row seat in this relentless push forward. Whether helping build new softwares or applications, supporting organisations with vital data analytics or protecting them from bad actors in the cybersecurity space, there’s a huge range of possibilities.

Our Centre for Applied Computer Science offers you the chance to enter this dynamic and evolving world of digital technology, equipped with the right creative and technical skills.
