How do you develop safe apps for mobile phones? How do you produce 3D images of an MRI scan? How do you program a computer system to find the quickest travel route?
We are becoming increasingly dependent on computers, but
computers cannot function without us either! After all, someone has
to tell them what to do. That requires people who enjoy devising
ever-smarter solutions and innovations.
Computing scientists design, improve and implement the software and
computer systems that businesses and our social life cannot do
without.
Use your skills as you learn
Computing Science is the discipline that involves the study and
development of computer systems. This can involve either new or
existing systems. The stimulating aspect of this degree programme
is that you can put the knowledge and skills you acquire to
practical use straightaway, for example by writing a useful
computer programme.
More than just programming
If you choose to study Computing Science at Groningen, you will
learn high level programming in several languages. But programming
accounts for only a quarter of the degree. You will also be
producing documentation, carrying out analyses, working with
others, giving presentations and writing.
Computing science is a good subject to study if you have
wide-ranging interests; it can be easily combined with another
subject area.
