The aim of this course is to help students acquire basic knowledge and skills in computer science. Throughout the course, students tackle three problems, which are selected from the important topics in computer science --- algorithms, computational complexity, numerical computation, simulation, cryptography, etc.
At the end of this course, students will acquire basic knowledge and skills in computer science.
computer science, programming, algorithms, computational complexity, numerical computation, simulation, cryptography.
✔ Specialist skills | Intercultural skills | Communication skills | Critical thinking skills | ✔ Practical and/or problem-solving skills |
During the class, programming exercises will be conducted along with lectures. Homework and report assignments to confirm understanding will be given in the class. There are also some quizzes in the class.
