Computer Science and Mathematics with a Year Abroad
Queen Mary University of London
Computer Science and Mathematics with a Year Abroad
Course Summary
Go global and study abroad as part of your degree – apply for our Computer Science and Mathematics BSc with a Year Abroad. Queen Mary has links with universities in Europe, North America, Asia and Australia (partnerships vary for each degree programme).
Acquire a rare and valuable combination of skills from top experts across two Queen Mary schools. The programme, taught jointly with the School of Mathematical Sciences, provides a solid grounding in both fields. You’ll cover core topics in mathematics, including calculus, probability and linear algebra. In computer science, you’ll gain practical skills in software development and interface design, underpinned by a strong grasp of the fundamental principles of IT.
You can choose option modules from across mathematics and computer science, including computer graphics, artificial intelligence, number theory and chaos. Take an equal balance of modules from each school, or steer your studies more towards one discipline. In the final year, you’ll design an individual project based on your own interests and linked to current research areas, such as security, big data, computer gaming, interaction design, machine learning, pervasive computing, theoretical computer science, social network analysis or digital audio.

Queen Mary University of London welcomes applications from students currently studying Level 3 BTEC qualifications and will consider you for entry to the majority of our undergraduate courses. The typical entry requirements will vary according to the course you are applying for.
Some of our courses require specific subject knowledge which you may not be able to cover as part of a Level 3 BTEC qualification and we may therefore require additional Level 3 qualifications to ensure that you are suitably prepared for relevant courses. A small number of our courses do not accept BTEC qualifications for entry, either as a standalone qualification, or in combination with other qualifications at Level 3.
Information on our typical entry requirements and guidance for applying can be found at http://www.qmul.ac.uk/undergraduate/entry/btec/
If you are at all unsure about the acceptability of your BTEC qualification for entry, please contact the Admissions team for individual advice (admissions@qmul.ac.uk).
