Program the future

Ready to take your place in the technology revolution?

Our Bachelor of Computer Science features artificial intelligence and machine learning courses not available anywhere else in South Australia. It's taught by world-class researchers and teachers within a faculty ranked 41 in the world for computer science and engineering*.

Graduate ready for an abundance of career options within an industry growing year on year at an above average rate in Australia**.

This program is accredited by the Australian Computer Society (ACS).

Depending on your chosen major, you will:

• explore self-driving cars, robotic vision, machine learning and image recognition
• learn how to protect networks, data and software systems from attack and unlawful access
• apply cutting-edge data analysis techniques-such as machine and deep learning-to large sets of data
• design, make and study large-scale distributed software systems, including parallel, mobile and cloud-based environments.

Majors are available in:

• Artificial intelligence
• Computer science
• Cybersecurity
• Data science
• Distributed systems and networking.

You can also choose a flexible program, covering topics ranging from gaming and graphics, to computer vision and software engineering.

No matter how technology transforms the jobs market, computer science skills will be crucial. You could design robots or collective virtual reality spaces. You might work at Google as a software engineer. Perhaps you'll legally break into systems as a white hat hacker to test their security.
