Programme profile
Computer science at Trinity College is a challenging and exciting course with a focus on innovation and cutting-edge technology. It demands the very best from our students. As a graduate you will have a thorough knowledge of computer science along with a range of professional skills in teamwork and management. If, for example, you see yourself in a leading team of software developers in computer games, internet software or medical technologies or as a researcher developing innovative technology that will change the way we use computers, then computer science at Trinity College may be for you.
To get the best from the course you need to be interested in developing clear logical descriptions of real world problems and schemes (algorithms) for their solution. Proficiency in mathematics is required and an ability to communicate clearly is a most desirable asset. If you are knowledgeable about computers already, to the extent of building them or writing programs for them, so much the better
