Our Computer Science degree programme offers a curriculum that combines theory and practice. The combination of theoretical knowledge and practical involvement strikes a healthy balance between traditional academic learning and more hands-on experiences. The overall aim of this programme is to provide you with the knowledge and skills required to be a computing professional. Our approach is very hands-on when it comes to computing and our projects allow each student to see and understand first-hand how various companies work. One of the advantages of our Computer Science Course is that the students have access to various facilities during school trips. Some of which include attending the two day conference: Agile in Africa - where students had the opportunity to participate in the conference, visiting the Kofi Annan Centre - where students had the opportunity to learn about new networking technology and taking part in the MEST Hackathon - where students were put into teams to solve various problems by building a prototype. Our computer science students competed against other students and Masters and PhD students as they worked 24 hours non-stop in a “Social Storm” social entrepreneurship hackathon. The Social Storm was an experiential learning opportunity for students that facilitate a connection of passionate young people, to allow them to collaborate on finding innovative solutions to global situations. This event brought together over 15 universities and their students tackling 2 global issues: food security and sustainable housing which stems from the UN’s Global Goals. The aim of the hackathon was to inspire students with great examples of social enterprises, businesses and projects happening around them, develop students’ enterprise and employability skills and knowledge of business as well as demonstrate how potential technology has the ability to change how we communicate our ideas across countries. https://lancaster.edu.gh/courses-ug.php?p=167
