Information Technology at CEP
The course at CEP concentrates on bridging theory and practice, including a wide variety of Information Technology Systems and their applications. The course is designed to equip students with the fundamental understanding and practical skills needed by the potential leaders of a demanding profession.A sound understanding of mathematical ideas is needed throughout the degree, both for potential applications such as scientific computation, and for reasoning rigorously about the specification and behaviour of programs. Practical skills must also be developed, and the majority of subjects within the course are linked with practical work.
