About this program

Griffith University's Bachelor of Computer Science takes place over three years full-time in Brisbane. Students look at core areas like programming, algorithms, software design, database systems, artificial intelligence, and cybersecurity. Alongside technical knowledge, there are opportunities to build teamwork and communication skills through group projects and presentations.

The course structure follows Australian standards, using semesters and units of study that earn credit points towards graduation. By the third year, students work on a major capstone project, tackling a real-world problem or working with industry partners in the Brisbane technology sector. For those interested, some units offer professional placement experiences, providing exposure to actual workplace environments and helping students develop professional networks.

Skills developed include coding in various programming languages, problem-solving, project management, and systems analysis. This course suits those who like solving logical problems, enjoy technology, and want practical experience. International students need to meet English requirements, and should confirm details on Griffith's official page.
