  • Hi, it's Christa!
    This is my first CZcams video, where I'll be giving you an inside look at a typical day in my life, as a Computer Science Student at the University of Warwick.
    It's exam season, so filming time was a little limited, but I wanted to do this anyway!
    Hope you enjoy! x

      I took Maths, Computer Science, Physics, Further Maths AS and Chemistry AS. I think taking maths will definitely help - especially as it is a requirement for most universities. However, it is doable w/o maths. You just have to look at what universities you want to apply for and if your choices will suit that :)

    i was considering doing at computing degree however the ict i studied at A-level is mostly hardware , software relating to how a business would use such programmes and tools. i never studied coding languages , is that something you learn or have to have previous knowledge to become successful at such course. thank you.

      For Reference: I worked with a bunch of Uni of Warwick alum in a tech company that had an office in Birmingham, England.
      University of Warwick is a really strong university in the UK and has a very strong reputation for Engineering and Science especially.
      The CS program at Warwick is fairly math heavy though, and you need to have good grades in A Level math to get on to the course.
      Job opportunities are outstanding. The company we worked for was an excellent tech company, and many of the Warwick CS alum worked for large tech/FANNG companies.

      Ur first questions must be
      1) what's computer science?
      2) career after computer science degree
      3)which are the subjects u will have to study.
      Laptop/pc is the least important thing . Any Machine will do.
      Unless you're doing some high level machine learning/Ai stuff
      Btw search all the above listed questions on CZcams and get your knowledge
