    LEARNING AND TEACHING METHODS

    This subject involves two 1-hour lectures and one 2-hour workshop each week. Although lectures are largely delivered directly based on the slides, often there are in-class discussions and development of computer code. The workshops are a blend of tutorial theory questions and implementation of algorithms and data structures in C.

    INDICATIVE KEY LEARNING RESOURCES

    Students are provided with lecture slides, and sample and scaffolding computer code in the C language.

    CAREERS / INDUSTRY LINKS

    With Big Data at the forefront of modern computing solutions, industry is ever-more focused on efficient computational analysis methods. Software engineers, developers and data analysts will find not only the analysis techniques, but also the fundamental algorithmic design concepts, highly applicable to the handling of significant datasets.
