梅努斯大学

• Study all the essentials of computing and software, as well as key areas in mathematics, a major project and a six month placement in industry.
• Acquire hands-on programming skills and advanced problem solving techniques in our new dedicated computer science building (Eolas).
• You will study another Arts subject or Critical Skills with Computer Science and Mathematics in first year.

Why choose this degree?

• Students enjoy the huge benefit of studying another Arts subject with Computer Science in first year. This lends graduates a wider frame of reference.
• The Department of Computer Science at Maynooth University was founded in 1987 and is located in the Eolas Building, a €20M state-of-the-art ICT hub, which opened in 2015.
• Our new laboratories and equipment provide excellent facilities for practical work and all our courses include a mix of lectures
• and lab work.
• Spending time working in industry as part of your degree enhances your employment opportunities once you graduate.
• We endeavour to provide a supportive and enjoyable atmosphere for learning through our Programming Support Centre, extensive
• assistance during practical work and we are always available outside of lectures to help our students.

• Computing, programming and software skills are in high demand. Graphical interface design, medical imaging, video-based information systems, multimedia systems development, electronic publishing, computer-assisted translation, e-learning systems development, games development, website design and development, and software development are some areas to consider.
• These skills are also valued in non-computing industries, such as financial services, business and administration, health services, and the automobile and aeronautics sectors.
• Computer Science is a teaching subject at second level and therefore a career in education may also be possible.
