"So you think you want to be a programmer...?"
Computer Science

Friday 18th

9am - 3pm
A
Technocamps workshop for Year 10 pupilsComputers are everywhere, and can be found in almost every device in everyday life. Look at the applications in use everyday: text messaging, computer games, and online chat rooms. All are easy to use but how do they work?
Without software to drive the functionality, technology as we use it would not exist: without computer science there would be no future development of software and programmes.
Could you contribute to the future of software development? Come and experience a day in the life of a computer programmer, and find out if you’re up to the challenge!
