The programme
Acquire hands-on programming skills and advanced problem solving techniques in our dedicated computer science building (Eolas). Students of the Multimedia, Mobile and Web Development (MWS) at the Maynooth University enjoy the huge benefit of studying another Science 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. Our laboratories and equipment provide excellent facilities for practical work and all our courses include a mix of lectures and laboratory 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 Computer Science Support Centre, extensive assistance during practical work and we are always available outside of lectures to help our students.
Career Options
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.
