Bachelor of Computer Science Honours, Algorithms

Computer Science is an ever-changing discipline that studies the theory, design and implementation of computer applications and systems. 

You will learn to use computing and information technology to help solve the problems people face in business, science, and society today and those they will face tomorrow.

Through The School of Computer Science, the Honours Computer Science program at Carleton is organized into diverse streams so that you can develop a particular expertise.

Carleton University also offers a Combined Honours program with Mathematics.

In addition to core courses in computer science, this stream includes foundational courses on algorithms

These courses will teach you to design, analyze, experiment with and reason about algorithms that arise in modern applications such as search engines, games, social networks, markets, economics and computer networks. 

The stream is especially suited for students with strong mathematical abilities who wish to pursue an advanced degree or a career in cutting-edge research.
