Computer technology, it seems, is everywhere in today’s world. It has become an ever-growing part of human life, affecting many aspects of a person’s day. Computer scientists have an impact on how our society advances by developing and maintaining these systems: whether it be for our home, work, learning or entertainment environments.
We’ll cover:
• How information is stored in computers (data structures and management)
• How computers are told what to do (algorithms and programming languages)
• How systems work (computer architecture and system software)
• How computers are connected (data communications, networks and hypermedia)
• Some ways in which computers can be used (applications)
• What computers can do, and their limitations (computability and complexity theory)
If you’re interested in a relevant and dynamic field of study, and working in an industry where there is a real demand for expertise, then Computer Science is for you.
