Study Computing at Goldsmiths

As a department we’re interested in a certain kind of study: one that's founded on creativity, independence and learning by doing.

As a student here you'll really get to create the software you want to create – so you’ll be working on your own projects from the start of your degree.

We want you to graduate with a computing degree that has weight in the real world, so you'll be taught to apply computing to a whole range of real-life situations and to many industries within the creative arts and business sectors. And, because you apply computing to other subjects such as music and media when you’re here, you’ll be able to think on your feet and adapt within this evolving field.
