Computing & IT and Statistics (Q67-CITS)

This is one of several subject combinations available in our BSc (Honours) Computing & IT and a second subject (Q67). This degree combines computing & IT with statistics, equipping you with both technical and analytical skills in high demand across sectors. You’ll study core computing modules alongside statistical methods, data analysis, and mathematical modelling. As you progress, you’ll specialise in a computing pathway of your choice and complete a final-year project that integrates both disciplines. On completion, you'll be well-prepared for roles in data science, software development, financial technology, and research.
