The course is designed for students who wish to study computing in depth. It focuses on software development, computer architecture, and the underlying theory of computation.

These areas are combined with the study of computational approaches in science and engineering and with information processing applications in commerce and industry.

Course structure

The course consists of 14 compulsory (core) units in computer science and mathematics, two restricted electives chosen from an approved list of computer science topics, and eight free elective units. Free electives should normally be taken as a sequence in a specific field of study. A capstone project taken during the third year concludes the studies.

Please refer to the Monash University handbook entry for more details.
