Flexibility of Computer Science in Electronics, Cybersecurity, and Pure

When I went to Southampton Uni for their recent open day, I was very happy with their selling of the Computer Science course. They were stressing the flexibility of being able to pick-and-choose (to a certain extent) between Pure Computer Science, Cybersecurity, and Electronics. Coming away from this I have realised that this flexibility is exactly what I am looking for.

Does this description sound familiar to anyone else? Are there any Unis that offer similar things that people have found? What do you like about them?

Thanks in advance

Hiya!
The Computing and Communication degrees are very flexible at Lancaster University. There are several options: Pure Computer Science, Cyber Security, Software Engineering, Data Science and Computer Science with Maths. While Data Science and CS+maths are slightly special, with other courses you can actually convert between them up to the start of your second year! This means that you have more time to pick the degree that is right for you.
Lancaster Computing courses also offer quite a wide range of optional modules, so that for example you can pick an optional Cyber Security module while doing Computer Science. Additional bonus: if you are considering doing a masters, then switching between BSc and MSci is also very easy.

So if flexibility is what you're looking for in a course, check out Lancaster's courses. It's quite a good mix in my experience

Hope that helps!

After such helpful comments about Lancaster University, I have decided to attend a campus tour next week. Is there any advice you can offer about things I might do while I'm there to help with my enquiries?
