The Computer Science department at Aston University is among the top Computer Science
departments in the UK, ranking 9th in the 2017 Guardian University League Table.
We run four undergraduate degree programmes: Computing Science, Multimedia Computing, Computing
for Business, and a joint honour programme Computing and Mathematics. All programmes are proving
attractive to well-qualified applicants; the offers for 2015 entry were at ABB. The intake is
currently about 200 across the four programmes and applications for 2016 have risen by a further
10%. The focues of our programmes is on information systems engineering incorporating scientific
principles, with an emphasis on design and practical projects. Many of our students proceed to
an industrial placement in their third year, and the rate of graduate employment is extremely
high, with 93% of our students in jobs or further studies within 6 months of graduation. The
British Computer Society has given our programmes full accreditation (CITP). In addition, the
Computing for Business programme is endorsed by e-skills (the sector skill council for ICT) as
an 'Information Technology for Management and Business' degree.
