COURSE CURRICULUM

The Computer Science program offers a comprehensive curriculum that provides a deep understanding of computer systems, programming, and application development.In Year 1, students build foundational knowledge in computer science. Mathematics for Computing (COS4014-B) focuses on mathematical principles essential for algorithmic thinking and computational mathematics. Technical and Professional Skills (COS4015-B) helps students develop problem-solving, decision-making, and industry-specific professional skills. Fundamentals of Programming (COS4016-B) introduces Java programming and emphasizes problem-solving techniques and logical thinking. Computer Architecture and Systems Software (COS4001-B) covers computer hardware systems and digital logic design. Internet Technologies (COS4018-B) explores the fundamentals of web technologies, protocols, and web scripting languages. Software Design and Development (COS4017-B) covers Object-Oriented design, software engineering principles, and the software development lifecycle.Year 2 deepens technical knowledge and introduces practical applications. Computer Communications and Networks (COS5025-B) teaches network architecture, security, and data communication. Database Systems (COS5020-B) focuses on relational database design and implementation. Data Structures and Algorithms (COS5021-B) teaches essential problem-solving techniques and computational solutions. Artificial Intelligence (COS5028-B) introduces AI concepts and practical applications, with hands-on experience using languages like Python. Numerical Analysis (COS5018-B) explores numerical methods for solving real-world mathematical problems. Enterprise Pro (COS5019-B) provides real-life industry project experience, allowing students to apply their knowledge in a practical setting.In Year 3, students participate in a study abroad or placement year, gaining hands-on industry experience.The final year involves advanced modules. The Final Year Project (COS6006-D) allows students to apply their skills to a real-world problem, advancing their research, design, and development abilities. Numerical Methods and Computer Graphics (COS6021-B) focuses on algorithms for graphics, games, and real-time applications.
