MSc Advanced Computer Science

This flexible course offers a largely free choice of modules from our range of Advanced Masters programmes. It is likely to appeal to computing graduates whose interests span more than one specialism and/or those seeking the freedom to explore a wide variety of advanced topics. Depending on the options chosen, this course can serve as a springboard for employment or research.

This course can be combined with a semester abroad at EPITECH in Paris.
