The aim of the minor in computer science is to equip the student with the basic concepts in computer science. To be more specific, s/he should:
- Master the basic foundations of computer science (programming, algorithms and data structures, computer languages, information systems,...)
- Analyze and solve medium-sized computing and IT problems by applying the acquired knowledge from different computer science domains.
On successful completion of this programme, each student is able to :
- Acquire and demonstrate an understanding of a knowledge base of the main disciplines that make up computer science in order to grasp its specific features.
- Demonstrate knowledge and understanding of the basic tools of computer science.
- Discover and grasp the rigor required by computer science, and demonstrate this integration.
- Demonstrate a capacity for formalism/reasoning specific to computer science.
- Perceive the specificities of computer science (and the contributions of such an outlook) and construct a reflection complementary to that of the discipline of one's major in order to enrich the study of computer science.
