BSc (Hons) Computer Science

The undergraduate computing degree at Gisma University of Applied Sciences takes a student from first principles to a project they can explain. Teaching uses problems from ordinary organisations in the UK, not a tour of fashion. Online students follow the same modules as campus students at Świdnicka 40. The credit total on this page is the sum of those modules.

BSc (Hons) Computer Science is taught as one award, not a list of unrelated modules. The published length is 3 years full-time, and the credit total is 360. Students move from Programming Fundamentals through Programming Fundamentals; Mathematics for Computing; Computer Systems & Architecture; Web Development; Object-Oriented Software Design; Database Fundamentals, and finish on Honours Computing Project & Dissertation.

Each course has a question, a method, and a submission. In this field, students specify a small system, show how it was tested, and state how it fails. Reading is a specification, a test note, and an incident or post-mortem. The artefact a marker expects is a specification or reviewed component with tests and a trade-off note.

The award is built so that a graduate can do the following in practice: Write and test a small program Explain how data is stored and retrieved Describe a simple network or web system

Teaching assumes the student can read a source, attempt a problem before the seminar, and revise after feedback. Attendance at live seminars is part of the design. The capstone or final course must use the methods of the earlier courses; a project that ignores them does not pass.

The pages for each course name the topics that are examined. Those topics are the syllabus. A brochure line is not a substitute for them.

The credit total equals the modules listed. Online tuition is covered. Examination or administrative fees may still apply. Campus study, where it is offered, is priced separately.
