About this course

Computer science is the discipline through which human beings have developed the ability to make machines think, solve problems, process information, and control complex systems at speeds and scales that no unaided mind could match. It addresses questions from the theoretical, what can be computed and with what resources, to the intensely practical, how software is built to be correct, efficient, and safe. The discipline underpins modern life across every sector: from cancer research and weather prediction to cybersecurity and space exploration, computer science graduates are central to the solutions.
