Course Learning Outcomes Assessed:
B1: COMPUTATION THINKING:
Develop and understand algorithms to solve problems; measure and optimise algorithm complexity; appreciate the limits of
what may be done algorithmically in reasonable time or at all.
B2: PROGRAMMING:
create working solutions to a variety of computational and real world problems using multiple pro gramming languages chosen
as appropriate for the task.
B3: ARCHITECTURE:
understand the underlying architecture that supports the modern computer, including traditional compilers and operating
systems, but also the modern infrastructure of the internet an d mobile applications.
B4: DATA SCIENCE:
work with (potentially large) datasets; using appropriate storage technology; applying statistical analysis to draw meaningfu l
conclusions; and using modern machine learning tools to discover hidden patterns.
B5: SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT:
take a product from the initial stage of requirement / analysis all the way through development to its final stages of testin g /
evaluation.
B6: PROFESSIONAL PRACTICE:
understand professional practices of the modern IT industry which include those technical (e.g. version control / automated
testing) but also social, ethical & legal responsibilities.
B7: TRANSFERABLE SKILLS:
apply a wide variety of degree level transferable skills including time management, team working, written and ve rbal
