Description
The study of computer science is central to our understanding of how the world processes, manages, and communicates information. It is a field which impacts all disciplines and has redefined how we work, interact, and conduct our day-to-day lives.
Computer science specialists design, implement, and integrate software applications which may execute on any system of computing devices, from supercomputers to game boards. They use theories, methodologies, and techniques that help ensure that the system is robust and useable.
INFORMATION & ADDITIONAL NOTES
Students entering the Honours program in Computer Science are required to have completed a secondary school senior-level mathematics course in good standing.
Courses in Computer Science fulfilling University science credit requirements for the BSc are marked SCIE in the individual course descriptions.
Students majoring in Computer Science and who have had some programming experience may consider enrolling in both COIS 1010H and 1020H in the Fall term to increase their options for additional COIS courses earlier in their program.
MATH 1110H and 1120H are recommended for students in a Computer Science program who are interested in postgraduate studies.
