The comprehensive Computer Science MEng at UCL allows you to build the broad base of technical skills and knowledge needed for a tech career. What’s more, you’ll gain significant research experience and expertise by working with active researchers and research groups at one of the world’s leading computer science departments (Research Excellence Framework 2021). 


You’ll acquire the skillset of a well-rounded computer science professional through problem-based learning activities that challenge you to apply what you’ve learned to a range of real-world challenges and interdisciplinary contexts.   


As a result, you’ll develop a solid foundation in the fundamentals of modern computer science, along with significant teamwork experience, and a broad understanding of how engineering principles are used to develop, maintain, and improve complex systems.  


You’ll then go further – honing your research methods, collaborating with active researchers, and completing a self-directed Master’s-level research project or dissertation. To support this independent study in your final year, you’ll select a set of optional Master’s-level modules to build relevant specialist expertise in areas such as artificial intelligence, information security or software engineering.  


With the opportunity to apply for five-year options that include either a year studying abroad or on placement with one of our approved industrial partners, this challenging, intensive course gives you everything you need to define and achieve your ambitions in computer science.
