Message from Programme Director

Welcome to the Bachelor of Science (Hons) in Computer Science Programme!

Information and Communication Technology (ICT) has been an integral part of our daily life. This BSc programme is designed to empower our graduates to innovate and serve the ICT industry, both locally and globally.

The programme contains not only a series of foundation courses in Computer Science, but also a concentration of study to equip students for realising their career goals. Students choose one of the four concentrations, namely, i) Artificial Intelligence (AI), ii) Computing and Software Technologies (CST), iii) Data and Media Communication (DMC) (co-offered with the Department of Journalism), and iv) Information Systems and Analytics (ISA). Through summer internships or one-year placements, students gain experience in solving real-world problems and communicating with a range of colleagues and audiences. Each student also works on an individual final-year project under the supervision of a faculty member.

Our graduates step into the world with job offers from technology companies, innovative startups, and investment banks, among others. Every year, some of our graduates advance to postgraduate studies at prestigious universities in the USA, Canada, UK, etc. The AI, CST, and ISA concentrations have received full accreditation from the Hong Kong Institute of Engineers (HKIE).

I encourage you to find out more details from our website. I look forward to welcoming you to the programme.
