Computer Science with a Year in Industry

Our Computer Science with a Year in Industry BSc will give you an in-depth understanding of computer-based information systems in the heart of a connected London. The first two years of the course focus on programming, computer systems, databases, artificial intelligence, software engineering and logic. You will spend your third year undertaking an industry placement before returning to complete a final year at King's. This depends on you reaching a certain grade average and obtaining a suitable placement opportunity. The fourth year includes a project implementing a sophisticated piece of software.

Finding an industry placement will require students to be resourceful and engaged. We have dedicated placement support who can provide advice and host employer-led events, ensuring you have all the tools to secure the right placement for you.
