You'll choose from three majors – artificial intelligence, software engineering or cloud analytics – so you can prepare for a specialised career in computer science.
As well as your technical subjects, you'll also build the human skills you need for the workplace.
Think project management, critical thinking, problem-solving and communication. These are the transferable skills you'll need to be employable and carve a path of success throughout your career.
