Bachelor of Computer Science

Why Bachelor of Computer Science?

Create the technology of the future. Computer scientists design, develop, and analyse the software and hardware used to solve a range of problems facing society. While IT specialists work with existing technology to solve a problem, computer scientists are at the forefront of building new technology from the ground-up.

With increased technology adoption driving transformation in virtually every sector – from agriculture to healthcare, education and manufacturing – the demand for highly skilled computer scientists has never been greater (Tech Council of Australia, 2023).

Our Bachelor of Computer Science will equip you with a solid foundation in computer science skills. You’ll also acquire strong understanding of the ethical and legal dimensions of the evolving tech landscape – preparing you well for a dynamic career in a wide range of industries.

Job Opportunity Potential

With Australia needing an additional 600,000 people to join the tech sector by 2030, the demand for highly skilled computer scientists is only expected to rise (Tech Council of Australia, 2023opens in a new tab). With its rigorous focus on theory, technical and professional skill development, our Bachelor of Computer Science ensures you’ll graduate career-ready with the skills industry demands.

You could develop software to help farmers more accurately determine how much water to use in different parts of their fields. Perhaps you’ll design more immersive virtual reality technology to help train future medical professionals. Or maybe you’ll devise an algorithm that enables renewable energy grids to manage energy demand and distribution more intelligently or code to coordinate the next generation driverless cars.

Computer scientists can be found working in both direct and indirect tech roles in a wide range of industries and sectors, including:

  • Agriculture, food, and wine
  • Social media
  • Defence
  • Education
  • Banking
  • Energy
  • Finance
  • Health care
  • Manufacturing etc.
