What is Computer Science? Computer Science deals with the theory and methods of processing information in digital computers, the design of computer hardware and software, and the applications of computers. A Computer Scientist will not only understand how information is processed in a computer system, but also the means by which that information can be manipulated for specific tasks. Course Structure: Computer Systems o Input, output and storage o Software development o Exchanging data o Data types, structures and algorithms o Legal, moral, cultural and ethical issues e Algorithms and programming o Computational thinking o Programming and problem solving o Algorithms e Programming project o Problem analysis o Solution design o Development o Testing and evaluation
