Computer Science and Data Analytics at Wenzhou-Kean University

Build the technical skills behind software, artificial intelligence and data-driven decision-making. Wenzhou-Kean University offers two English-taught pathways for international students who want to turn complex problems into practical digital solutions.

Choose Computer Science for a broad education in computing systems and software, or Mathematical Sciences with the Data Analytics option for a stronger focus on mathematics, statistics and extracting insight from data. Successful graduates receive bachelor’s degrees from both Wenzhou-Kean University and Kean University in the United States.

Prepare for a future shaped by technology and data

Technology employers need graduates who can do more than use digital tools. They need people who can understand how systems work, analyse information, write reliable code and communicate solutions clearly.

At WKU, you will study in English through a U.S. curriculum while gaining experience in China’s fast-moving technology environment. Small classes, faculty-led research, project work and internship opportunities help you develop skills for employment or competitive postgraduate study.

Choose the pathway that fits your strengths

Computer Science — Bachelor of Science

Learn how to design, build and improve computer-based solutions. The program combines computing theory with practical study in programming, data structures, algorithms, networking, computer architecture, operating systems and object-oriented analysis and design.

You can also explore areas such as artificial intelligence, data mining, database systems, cybersecurity, digital forensics, software engineering and web programming. This pathway is ideal for students who enjoy building technology and want the flexibility to move into software, systems, security, data or technical management.

Mathematical Sciences: Data Analytics — Bachelor of Arts

Develop the mathematical and statistical foundation needed to understand complex datasets and make evidence-based decisions. The program combines calculus, linear algebra, probability and statistics with applied data analytics.

Specialist study includes applied statistics, big data computing, foundations of data analysis, data visualisation and statistical data mining. Students work with programming environments such as Python, R and MATLAB, and can explore machine learning, regression analysis, numerical analysis and other advanced subjects through electives.

The flexible degree structure also allows students to take additional study in areas such as computer science, finance or economics, helping them connect analytical skills with a practical field of interest.

Build experience through projects and research

Both pathways are designed to move from concepts to application. Computer Science students can develop software, analyse algorithms and work on computing projects, while Data Analytics students use statistical software to investigate real-world datasets and present their findings.

Research opportunities cover areas such as artificial intelligence, human-computer interaction, privacy and security, sentiment analysis and data mining. Students can also strengthen their experience through internships, data science workshops, mathematical modelling activities and competitions.

Study in an international STEM environment

WKU’s College of Science, Mathematics and Technology brings together computer science, mathematics and the natural sciences. Students learn from internationally recruited faculty and can take part in interdisciplinary work that connects technology and data with business, health, education and scientific research.

The modern campus provides study spaces, computing resources, research facilities, student clubs, sports facilities and university accommodation. Living in Wenzhou also gives international students the opportunity to experience one of China’s most entrepreneurial and commercially active cities.
