Bachelor of Computer and Math Science (BCM) is an undergraduate academic degree awarded to a student after three years of studying computer science, information technology and/or mathematics at an accredited university in Australia (other countries may offer this degree, this is unknown at the time of writing).

A Bachelor of Computer and Math Science is a flexible academic degree allowing a double major combining majors within the fields of Computer Science, Mathematics and Information Technology, as well as other approved subject areas within the university. Third year units in Computer Science particularly, offer a wide range of future study interests, including Robotics, Management and Programming

Therefore this degree is considered one of the most flexible degrees in the 'sciences', allowing such diverse majors as Pure Mathematics and History or Mechanical Engineering and French.

This degree is currently offered at the University of Western Australia under the Faculty of Engineering, Computing and Maths.

Students must complete two majors in the Bachelor of Computer and Math Science. The first major must be one of the following from the School of Computer Science and Software Engineering:

Computer Science

Information Technology Systems

Information Technology Applications

or

One of the following 7 from the School of Mathematics and Statistics:

Applied Mathematics:

Pure Mathematics

Mathematics Sciences

Mathematical Statistics

Applied Statistics

Discrete Mathematics

Operations Research

A second major may be taken from any of the above or any available within the University.
