COMPUTING STUDIES

This is a two year course which aims for a balance between descriptive and theoretical aspects of computing studies and  practical “hands on” experiences.

The course consists of a core and themes (of which 4 are to be studied)

Please note that this course is not a course designed to “play games on the computers”. 

Rather it is a quite difficult and demanding course, which will challenge the more able students.  Students will spend approximately equal time on practical and theory work.
