COURSE CURRICULUM

The BSc (Hons) Computer Science with Mathematics at Liverpool John Moores University provides a rigorous and integrated curriculum that combines core computer science skills with advanced mathematical principles, preparing students for a wide range of technology-driven careers. In the first year, students develop a solid foundation in programming, computer systems, web development, and computer science theory alongside essential mathematical topics such as linear algebra and mathematical methods. In the second year, the program builds on this foundation with modules in database systems, artificial intelligence, automata and computation, differential equations, and further mathematical methods, alongside a group project that encourages collaboration and practical problem-solving. Optional opportunities for a sandwich year or study abroad allow students to gain real-world experience and broaden their perspectives. The final year emphasizes advanced computing and mathematical applications, including computer graphics, virtualisation and cloud computing, contemporary computing concepts, data science, and a major project that integrates the knowledge and skills gained throughout the degree. Supported by state-of-the-art laboratories and specialist facilities, students gain hands-on experience with industry-standard software and tools, developing technical, analytical, and problem-solving skills essential for careers in software engineering, data analysis, artificial intelligence, scientific computing, and technology research, as well as transferable skills applicable across multiple industries.
