Overview

Master of Science - Computer Science

This course is no longer available.

Computer science is fundamentally about applying computing theory to information processes. 

Computer network professionals research, analyze and recommend strategies for networking architecture and development. They implement, manage, maintain and configure network hardware and software; monitor and optimize performance; troubleshoot and provide user support. 

They are responsible not only for finding ways to do things faster and with a better user experience, but also for ensuring information is protected for both privacy and security reasons. 

This course will extend your prior knowledge and experience of computing, and prepare you for research, teaching and further graduate studies. 

In addition to learning about the fundamentals of computer architecture and organizing, storing and retrieving data, you will learn how to identify software security problems in specialized client systems and to design countermeasures based on client requirements and priorities. 

You will develop expertise in formal languages, the mathematical foundation of computability, and formal logic of systemic complexity. This may enhance your career prospects in a range of industry sectors, business and management. 

Research project units within the course aim to develop high levels of communication and research skills, as well as creativity and flexibility in the application of knowledge and skills to new situations.

This major sits within the Master of Science (Science) degree. To apply for this major, you will apply for the Master of Science (Science).
