Overall it’s a nice course, but there are some aspects needs to improve. Course timetable is not ideal, for example, students could not fully learn programming in just two weeks and complete a wonderful coursework in one week. And some class is not that helpful to the future data science job, like research method. In some course, the teaching are too much focus on theories, and not helpful when doing the coursework. read more

I'm really enjoying the course so far, the lecturers clearly enjoy their respective subject areas and that allows students to be more engaged during the course of a semester. The amount of resources provided is more than adequate, although, I have personally had little to no contact with my personal tutor throughout my time at the university. The course content is really solid, laying out all of the basics and then some, making it very easy to follow - even the more difficult content. I can't comment on job prospects but I'm sure they will be setting us up for success. read more

with a CS degree, you are much more likely to get a CS-related job than your non-CS friends for their respective majors. And because the software industry pays developers very well, you'll at least live a very comfortable lifestyle even if you never strike it "rich" per se. So it's definitely not necessarily a "waste of time"; like any major, it is ultimately what you make of it, but CS in particular is remarkably free of the troubles so common in other majors (e.g. getting a job with a degree in Philosophy). The potential value of a CS degree is massive; you just have to realize that potential. read more

I really enjoy the majority of content on this course. Fantastic for career opportunities, but I do feel a little underprepared for my final year project as it is the only work of its kind in the whole degree. Also no presentation work which can leave you struggling if you aren't confident when it comes to career read more
