Overview:

This course introduces the principles of computer science alongside the practical methods used to design and develop software. It provides a foundation for understanding how computing systems work while building the technical and problem-solving skills needed to create software solutions.

What You'll Learn:

• Core concepts and principles of computer science

• Software development processes and practices

• Programming concepts, techniques, and problem-solving

• The design and development of software systems

• Computational thinking and approaches to analysing problems

• The relationship between theoretical computing concepts and practical software development

• Applying structured methods to develop and evaluate software solutions

Learning Outcomes:

By the end of the course, students will be able to explain fundamental concepts within computer science and apply computational approaches to a range of problems. They will develop an understanding of how software is planned, designed, implemented, and evaluated, using appropriate programming and development techniques. Students will also be able to analyse computing problems systematically, select suitable approaches to address them, and apply their knowledge to the development of software-based solutions.
