in C/C++ • Human Computer Interaction • Logic in Computer Science • Modelling and Verification Techniques • Operating Systems and Architectures • Programming in Java • Relational and Object-oriented Database Systems • Software Concepts and Efficiency • Software Engineering Principles • Software Testing • Visual Analytics • Web Application Development DATA SCIENCE MSc FT PT This programme will equip you with a solid grounding in data science concepts and technologies for extracting information and constructing knowledge from data. You will study the computational principles, methods and systems for a variety of real world applications that require mathematical foundations, programming skills, critical thinking and ingenuity. Development of research skills will be an essential element of the programme, enabling you to bring a critical perspective to current data science discipline and apply this to future developments in a rapidly changing technological environment. All students take a module in Computer Science Research Methods before undertaking an individual project over the summer. Modules typically include: • Big Data and Data Mining • Big Data and Machine Learning • Computer System Concepts • Computer Vision and Deep Learning • Data Visualisation • Graphics Processor Programming • High-performance Computing in C/C++
• Big Data and Machine Learning • Blockchain, Cryptocurrencies and Smart Contracts • Computer Vision and Deep Learning • Critical Systems • Data Visualisation • Embedded System Design • Graphics Processor Programming • Hardware and Devices • High-performance Computing in C/C++ • Human Computer Interaction • Information Security Management • IT Security: Cryptography and Network Security • Logic in Computer Science • Modelling and Verification Techniques • Operating Systems and Architectures • Security Vulnerabilities and Penetration Testing • Software Testing • Visual Analytics • Web Application Development COMPUTER SCIENCE MSc FT PT The MSc in Computer Science course is for you if you are a graduate from one of a wide range of disciplines and are looking to change direction or because the needs of your chosen career require a solid foundation in Computer Science. All students take a module in Computer Science Project Research Methods before undertaking an individual project over the summer. Modules typically include: • Big Data and Data Mining • Big Data and Machine Learning • Computer System Concepts • Computer Vision and Deep Learning • Critical Systems • Data Visualisation • Embedded System Design • Graphics Processor Programming • Hardware and Devices • High-performance Computing
• Human Computer Interaction • Mathematical Skills for Data Scientists • Modelling and Verification Techniques • Operating Systems and Architectures • Visual Analytics CYBER SECURITY MSc FT PT Our increasingly connected world presents continual new and serious security threats. From privacy violations (hacking, monitoring communications, leaking sensitive data, stealing and publishing private information) through to the drugs trade, sex trafficking and terrorism, Swansea’s Computer Science expert staff can provide the techniques required for mitigating such risks, in order to provide secure, reliable and trustworthy systems. In this MSc we take a holistic and interdisciplinary approach, bringing together modules on diverse topics such as penetration testing, formal modelling, information security management, cryptography and AI in order to equip our students with a suitable mind set for a career in cyber security. Our Cyber Security Lab provides the perfect backdrop for exploring the security landscape, allowing students and staff to carry out experiments in network security, mobile security, and to explore threats and defence mechanisms in the context of the Internet of Things. Following the taught component of the course, students will carry out a substantial research project which involves using and exploring cutting-edge techniques for specifying, developing, verifying and accessing systems against security criteria. Students will benefit from our broad range of industrial
