    Course Summary

    King’s College London has put together an excellent Computer Science BSc program. It is designed to give students a solid understanding of modern computer systems, in terms of designing them, programming them, troubleshooting and repairing them, and using them to their full potential.

    King’s College has an excellent reputation as a teaching facility, and their computer science department represents a very friendly atmosphere. It is also a world powerhouse in the field, though. More than 92% of its research output was ranked at ‘internationally excellent’ or ‘world leading’ by the REF in 2014.

    This program is fully accredited by the British Computer Society, demonstrating to employers that its graduates have established the training they need to excel in nearly any sector’s IT settings, and indeed are of sufficient quality to be placed in some of the world’s leading software houses… many of which they will have already had professional contact with, right there in London.

    If you are changing direction after starting in another career area, you will possess valuable work experience and professional awareness. Many employers actively seek candidates with these benefits. Our network of contacts, a dedicated employability service and a reputation in the legal profession mean we also have an outstanding track-record of finding students legal employment.Many employers favour GDL students in an increasingly competitive legal job market. Through studying another degree subject, you will have gained many transferable skills. By taking the conversion route into law, you are showing motivation and determination by choosing law at a later stage than some others. This looks good to employers.
