Additional Information:
This course is designed for non-computing majors who want a solid introduction to programming, with the aim of using computers as part of some other discipline. It does not assume any prior background in programming.
Electrical Engineering, Telecommunications, Mechanical Engineering, and Mechatronic Engineering specify this as the standard first year computing course. COMP1911 and the following course COMP1521 provide a solid introduction to programming an computer systems concepts for all of these students.
Students with an interest in computing or who wish to be extended might want to consider COMP1511 as an alternative, especially if they plan to study more computing as part of their future study. Students from all degrees are permitted to take COMP1511 instead of COMP1911.
Note: Because of significant content overlap, students cannot take both COMP1911 and COMP1511.
