COURSE CURRICULUM

The BSc Computer Science with Security and Forensics program offers a structured three-year pathway designed to provide students with both foundational and advanced knowledge in computing, with a strong emphasis on information security and digital forensics. In the first year, students develop essential computing skills, learning programming languages such as Python and Java, exploring computer architecture, operating systems, web applications, software engineering principles, and mathematics for computer science. This year also encourages creativity, problem-solving, and the development of professional skills. The second year introduces more advanced topics, including human-computer interaction, database systems, secure communication networks, and the Internet of Things, with students applying their knowledge in team projects that incorporate information security elements. Optional modules allow for further specialization in computational mathematics, data processing, and theoretical or scientific computing. In the third year, students engage with emerging technologies and professional aspects of computer security and forensics, gaining insights from expert-led lectures. They also complete an individual project that demonstrates their understanding of computer security and forensic practices. The program integrates theoretical knowledge with practical application, preparing graduates for careers in cybersecurity, digital forensics, software development, and IT management. It equips students with analytical, technical, and professional skills to address real-world security challenges in a rapidly evolving technological landscape.
