Warwick International Foundation Programme - Computer Science

The Warwick International Foundation Programme is a one-year course designed for international students who are looking to study in the UK and who require an additional year of study before they can apply for an undergraduate degree. You will receive a combination of academic and English language tuition to prepare you for your future UK studies. Our Computer Science IFP is designed to provide you with the knowledge and skills to be able to progress on to a range of Computing-related degree courses at university. The course will develop your understanding of the logic and mathematics that underpins computer technology, as well as the digital electronics that is required make it work. You will learn how algorithms are used to solve problems, and will learn how to convert these into computer languages; in particular the Python programming language. In addition to theoretical study, there are practical opportunities for you to present your understanding of the ethics and consequences of using computer technology, and the practical experience of designing, implementing and delivering your own programming project. Module typically include Pure Mathematics, Mathematics and Statistics, Computer Science, Inquiry and Research Skills, and English for Academic Purposes.
