Computer Science

Course summary

Studying Computer Science gives you a solid foundation in the underlying principles of computing, for example: understanding how algorithms and computer code are written; how data is stored; how data is transmitted around networks; and how hardware and software work. It also provides you with a deeper understanding that goes beyond the actual technology. For example, you will learn how to use computation to solve problems and to close links between computer science, mathematics and physics. You will learn about the latest methods for solving computable problems and developing your own solutions in the form of programs.
