Computer Science at Maynooth University is the study of the principals and use of computers and software. Students enjoy the huge benefit of studying other Arts subjects with Computer Science in first year with options to take different degree paths afterwards. Advanced topics such as computer vision, theoretical computer studies, robotics, cryptography and artificial intelligence may be studied, depending on the pathway students take. - The Department of Computer Science at Maynooth University was founded in 1987 and is located in the Eolas Building. Our laboratories and equipment provide excellent facilities for practical work and all our courses include a mix of lectures and lab work. Many of our students also spend time working in industry as part of their degree, which enhances their employment opportunities once they graduate.
- We endeavour to provide a supportive and enjoyable atmosphere for learning through our Computer Science Support Centre, extensive assistance during practical work and we are always available outside of lectures to help our students.
- Either 15 or 30 credits of Computer Science.
- If taking the 30 credit option: the extra 15 credits are timetabled outside of groups 1-6 so you may choose other subjects from groups 1, 2, 3, 4, 6.
- Only one of these can be taken as a double subject since the extra 15 credits for each are taught at the same time: Anthropology, Computer Science, German (beginner), History, International Development, Law, Sociology, Spanish (beginner).
- Recommend O3/H7 Leaving Certificate Mathematics.
