Programme Description

The BSc Computer Science and Management Studies degree offers an equal balance of computer science and management modules. The core modules you will study in each year are a subset of the core modules for the respective single honours degrees. Your management modules are taught by experts within the Nottingham University Business School, making this course ideal if you wish to combine computer science with business studies.

The primary objective of the course is to enable you to become a high-quality graduate equipped to bridge the gap between leading-edge computer technology and its application in the management of commercial and industrial enterprises. Throughout the course you will develop the skills required by computing professionals and managers alike. These include project management skills; the ability to schedule work, plan exercises, take part in and run meetings; teamworking and delegation skills; and the ability to combine the skills of specialists. In the final year, you will typically undertake an individual project, along with other taught modules across both schools.
