Computer Science is a practical subject where students can apply academic principles learned in the classroom to real-world systems. It is an intensely creative subject that combines invention and excitement, and can look at the natural world through a digital prism. In the first year we explore computing principles: the structure and function of a processor, input, output and storage devices, operating systems and applications software, data, networking, and the legal and ethical considerations of computing in society. This is supplemented with the study of algorithms, problem solving, software development, and programming techniques. The second year combines a study of advanced computing theory with a practical computing project.
Students are assessed via written papers and coursework.
