Description
This is a three year programme, and is also available with a year in industry (making it a four year programme). Your first two years will give you a solid foundation in Computer Science, and you will see not only what is needed now, but how things actually work, and how they may work in the future.
In your third year, you will be able to sharpen the focus of the programme, and exercise your creativity more. This is especially true of the third year project in which your particular interests can be given full rein. Also, options can be chosen from a wide variety of topics that encompass recent developments in Computer Science, including cutting-edge research that is being undertaken within the Department.
Practical and project work receives great emphasis throughout the course: the Department's teaching laboratories include software laboratories equipped with workstations, first and second year bench laboratories for experiments in digital electronics and microprocessor systems, and project laboratories for third year work.
