Bachelor of Mathematics/Bachelor of Computer Science

Learn to analyse information, forecast results and understand the theoretical foundations of computation when you study mathematics and computer science at UOW. You will study how the practical application of mathematics and computer science can be applied in diverse fields such as economics, finance, medicine and industrial manufacturing. You will learn how to help governments and businesses understand the factors behind important decisions using your knowledge across mathematical and statistical models.

What tools do government and businesses use to understand the factors behind important decisions? How can we use technology to better understand and help solve the biggest issues facing our natural world? On completion of this double degree, you will be able to answer these questions and more as you enter in-demand roles with highly transferrable skills in computation, problem-solving, data analysis, mathematical modelling and more.

You will benefit from enquiry-based learning that teaches you to constantly seek out knowledge, analyse it, and apply it in your chosen profession. As part of your computer science studies, you will build skills and knowledge to meet the needs of tomorrow's employers as you participate in practical classes in our purpose-built facilities, including networking and hacking labs.

You will learn core fundamentals across practical and theoretical subjects in the first year of your degree before deciding which majors and electives to focus on from the second year. Throughout this double degree, you will gain hands-on experience, make meaningful professional connections, and be given the opportunity to pursue corporate scholarships, summer scholarships, and undergraduate research projects with academic staff.
