About this programme

TRU's Bachelor of Computing Science is a four-year degree at the Kamloops campus, consisting of two years of general study followed by two years of concentrated computing science study. Students may complete a co-op work term to gain industry experience, and TRU offers undergraduate research opportunities to degree students. Entry pathways include a double-degree option, laddering from a diploma, and direct entry from other areas including Arts and Business. The programme is open to international applicants with September, January and May intakes. What the fee covers: the international rate. TRU's 2026-2027 undergraduate table has no Bachelor of Computing Science row; the programme falls under the generic row 'Bachelor's Degrees | $875 | $2,623 | 40 (120 credits) | $104,952', and the figure shown is that published four-year total divided over four years. Fee year: 2026-27. Before you budget: two caveats come with that number. First, the CAD 104,952 comes from the generic 'Bachelor's Degrees' row rather than a BCS-specific one, so confirm with TRU that the BCS carries no programme-specific premium before you rely on it. TRU does list several 'exception programs' with their own totals — BEng Software Engineering, BEng Computer Engineering, Engineering Transfer and ARET among them — so the generic row is the right one to apply here, but it is worth one question. Second, TRU's own row does not reconcile internally: CAD 875 x 120 credits is 105,000 and CAD 2,623 x 40 courses is 104,920, yet TRU prints 104,952. The gap is under CAD 100, but expect roughly CAD 105,000 in total, about CAD 26,250 a year, and treat all of these as approximate. TRU's per-credit international rate for 2026-27 is CAD 875. Entry: academic entry requires Pre-calculus 12 or Foundations of Math 12 with a minimum C+ or equivalent taken within the last two years. Co-op entry is competitive and separate: a term and cumulative GPA of 2.33 in all BSc courses, plus COMP 2230 and COMP 2920 before the first work term. No English requirement is shown because none could be confirmed on the pages read — check it with TRU before you rely on it.
