List of Disciplines

The study of software and software systems, including theory, design, development, and application, is the primary objective of computer science. Computer scientists typically create and analyse algorithms to create programmes and research the implementation of computer hardware and software. Computer science has its roots in mathematics and engineering, and it incorporates methods from queuing theory, probability and statistics, and electronic circuit design.

Computer Science courses provide students with expert knowledge of computer science ideas, methodologies, practises, and tactics. They learn more about a variety of programming languages, computing architecture, construction, engineering, and design. They also understand computer software, tools, packages, and systems. Students also gain an understanding of, and ability to respond to, rapid technology changes and adapt them to their needs. Furthermore, they obtain a wide range of transferable skills such as good numeracy, teamwork and leadership, creative thinking, time management and organisation, communication, and strong problem-solving, analysis, and decision-making abilities.
