Summary
This MSc in Computer Science is suitable foryou if you don’t have a first degree in Computer Science and wish to supplement the knowledge acquired in your undergraduate study with a substantial element of computer science.
The programme leads to a wide range of careers in the IT industry; in many cases students seek employment at the interface of the IT domain and the subject matter of their first degree.
Computer Science at the University of Liverpool is research-driven and internationally renowned for its cutting-edge work. Our lecturers are international leaders in their research specialities, coming first in the UK for research excellence at 3 and 4 (REF 2014).
The four main research groups: Agents; Algorithmics; Logic and Computation; and Economics and Computation provide a critical mass of expertise, strong group support and collaboration.
MSc research projects offer the opportunity to contribute to, and shape, cutting-edge research and innovative technologies of the future.
The programme is organised as two taught semesters followed by an individual project undertaken over the summer. During each semester MSc students study a number of modules adding up to 60 credits per semester (120 in total). This will be followed by a dissertation, also 60 credits, making an overall total of 180 credits.
