GROUP A INTRODUCTORY COURSES

Group A COURSES consists of bridging material in computing taught at an accelerated pace for MCompSc and GradDip in CS students. Students who are able to demonstrate that they have thoroughly covered equivalent material in their previous studies may request exemptions from some or all of these courses. These courses are not available in MEngSc for credit.

Group A ELECTIVE

COMP9520 - Concrete Computing

24uc

GROUP B CORE COMPUTING

Group B courses constitute the core knowledge in computing that every postgraduate student in computing should possess, including databases, algorithms, artificial intelligence, microprocessors, operating systems, and software engineering

COMP9008 - Software Engineering
COMP9101 - Design & Analysis of Algorithms
COMP9201 - Operating Systems
COMP9221 - Microprocessor Systems
COMP9311 - Database Systems
COMP9414 - Artificial Intelligence

Group B ELECTIVES

COMP9031 - Internet Programming
COMP9041 - Software Construction Techniques & Tools

GROUP C IMPORTANT COMPUTING ASPECTS

Group C courses constitute the secondary core courses that emphasise important aspects of computing, but due to time constraints it is not feasible to expect students to take all of them.

COMP9161 - Concepts of Programming Languages
COMP9102 - Compiling Techniques
COMP9151 - Foundations of Concurrency
COMP9331 - Computer Networks & Applications
COMP9415 - Computer Graphics
COMP9511 - Human Computer Interaction

B and C courses constitute the core of the IT discipline, and every graduate from a CSE postgraduate program should know about the majority of these topics.

ONE FREE ELECTIVE

A maximum of one free elective of Postgraduate level can be used toward the Groups B/C requirement. Approval can be sought by contacting the CSE Student Office.

Non CSE Electives: Under both the options, a student may be allowed to substitute up to two postgraduate courses from other schools subject to approval from the Postgraduate Enrolment Co-ordinator. This includes the Group B/C free elective. Approved courses
are counted as either Group B, C or D substitutions.

A Project nomination form must be signed by your supervisor before submission to the student office.
