This is a core module for Computer Science and Software Engineers. It teaches the fundamental data structures and algorithms that underpin modern software engineering. Without these algorithms, most software would be hopelessly slow to the point of being unusable. The course also teaches the principles behind algorithms and data structures and what data structures and algorithms teach our software engineering courses.

Two Learning Outcomes
