Ready to take your place in the technology revolution?

Our Bachelor of Computer Science features artificial intelligence and machine learning courses not available anywhere else in South Australia. It’s taught by world-class researchers and teachers within a faculty ranked 43 in the world for computer science and engineering.

Students commencing in July may have a slightly limited selection of courses.

What will you do?

Depending on your chosen major, you will:

• explore self-driving cars, robotic vision, machine learning and image recognition
• learn how to protect networks, data and software systems from attack and unlawful access
• apply cutting-edge data analysis techniques-such as machine and deep learning-to large sets of data
• design, make and study large-scale distributed software systems, including parallel, mobile and cloud-based environments.

Career Pathways

Bachelor of Computer Science students can tailor their respective programs to guide them towards a particular career. Some of the options available are as follows:

Computer Graphics: As computing becomes a more visual medium, the demand increases for computer scientists with skills in the areas of computer vision, graphics, networking and broadband telecommunications. With the right choice of computer science courses and electives, students will be well prepared for a rewarding career in this area.

Database and Information Systems Management: Database and information systems management is an increasingly important field in the area of information technology, with large volumes of data needing to be correctly stored and interpreted.

Network Management: Graduates in this area focus on the technical aspects of the design and implementation of data communications networks, including security and robustness. Choosing courses specifically focused on network issues will assist students to follow this career path.

Software Engineering: Software engineering is an essential discipline for anyone aiming to write reliable software for complex systems. Computer science degrees offer several software engineering courses, which include group projects tackling real world problems and cover the creation of software from its conception to delivery.
