Bachelor of Science (Honours) Computing Science and Mathematics

Bachelor of Science (Honours) Computing Science and Mathematics

MQF Level

6

Duration and Credits

4 Years

240 ECTS

Mode of Study

Full-time

Computing Science

The programme focuses on giving sound scientific and practical skills for constructing and analysing complex software systems. The focus is moving from developing applications for a single powerful machine to new environments ranging from (i) ones in which developers harness the computational power of multiple computers in order to leverage the cost of expensive calculations and guarantee acceptable levels of service, to (ii) the other extreme of developing systems which run on mobile devices with limited computational, memory and power resources.


Mathematics

Mathematics underlies the pursuit of every scientific endeavour as it equips you with the necessary body of knowledge and competences. Most of the Mathematics study-units in the first two years of the degree are compulsory. In the third year, students are asked to choose a stream from four available options. The four options are Graph Theory and Combinatorics, Functional Analysis and Topology, Applied Mathematics, and Biomathematics.


Computing Science

The Course shall consist of two parts, namely, Part One comprising the first three years and Part Two comprising the fourth year.

  1. Part One shall consist of study-units to which 180 credits are assigned and indicated in the programme of study and divided as follows:
  2. First Year: in addition to the compulsory and elective study-units outlined in the programme of studies of the chosen areas (not less than 26 credits in each of the two areas), students are required to register for optional study-units to bring their total for the year to 60 credits,

    Second Year: 30 credits in each of the two areas of study,

    Third Year: 30 credits in each of the two areas of study.

    At the end of Part One, students who obtain 180 credits as specified in paragraph (1) but who either opt not to proceed with the Course leading to the Honours Degree, or having proceeded, do not successfully complete the Course, shall be eligible for the award of the degree of Bachelor of Science (B.Sc.).

  3. Part Two shall consist of study-units to which 60 credits are assigned divided as follows:
    1. 40 credits in one area of study, of which 18 credits are assigned to a dissertation, and
    2. 20 credits in the other area of study,

provided that in the case of Mathematics, the dissertation may be substituted by one or more additional taught study-units.

Communication and Academic Skills Programme

The communication and academic skills programme complements students’ main course of study. It introduces them to writing and presenting as situated within academic contexts sensitive to specific disciplines and develops their competences for future careers.

This programme of study is governed by the General Regulations for University Undergraduate Awards, 2019 and by the Bye-Laws for the award of Bachelor of Science - B.Sc. - and Bachelor of Science (Honours) - B.Sc.(Hons) - under the auspices of the Faculty of Science.

Computing Science

By the end of the course, you will be able to:

  • Think systematically through your analysis, design, implementation and evaluation of a computer-based system.
  • Design, collaborate and communicate effectively in your development and delivery of quality software products.
  • Recognize the application that computing can provide and evaluate its global impact in transdisciplinary environments.

Mathematics

Upon successfully finishing the course, you will be able to:

  • Understand and employ the basic rules of logic, including the role of axioms or assumptions.
  • Recognize real-world problems that are amenable to mathematical analysis, and formulate mathematical models of such problems.
  • Explain fundamental mathematical concepts or analyses of real-world problems to non-mathematicians.

Non EU Applicants:

Fee per academic year: Eur 10,800

You are viewing the fees for non EU nationals. Switch to EU nationals if you are a national of any country from within the EU/EEA.

Computing Science

As ICT evolves and more innovative technology enters the market, more and more demand for such graduates is forecasted. As a graduate, you can be employed in a number of jobs, including, software developers and engineers, systems engineers, project leaders and developers, network management and applications, strategic ICT planners, distributed and concurrent software developers, multimedia communications engineers, and much more.


Mathematics

As a mathematician, you may work in the public sector, such as in the Central Bank of Malta, Ministry for Finance, Economic Policy Department, National Statistics Office, Malta Financial Services Authority; and in the private sector such as in insurance companies, banks, financial institutions, gaming companies, and consultancy firms. You may also find employment in the academic, manufacturing, logistics or IT sectors.

The Department of Mathematics also offers postgraduate degrees, both at masters and doctoral levels (M.Sc. and Ph.D.) in Mathematics. Based on world-wide recognition of University of Malta degrees, our graduates and postgraduates have been accepted to continue their studies in a wide range of overseas institutions in Europe, the United States and elsewhere.
