This Computer Applications option gives students the flexibility to combine a solid grounding of hardware and software with another field of study outside the Faculty of Engineering and Computer Science. Students are free to declare a Major or Minor in another discipline. Computer Science graduates are qualified to: design and create new software, and modify and test existing software used in a broad range of businesses and industries; devise new and more efficient algorithms and techniques; analyse and develop computer solutions to meet clients' information processing, database and computation needs; plan and implement computer security systems for database access control; provide technical support for sales functions requiring specialized knowledge; advise clients on their computing needs or provide support in the development of the software and hardware; and make decisions involving people, materials and money where knowledge of both computer software and hardware is essential.
These courses are intended as guidelines. Speak to your guidance counsellor to see what courses are offered at your school.
