Watch this video from Head of Computing, Simon Shipley, Head of Engineering, Jackie Theakston-Thomas and, Head of Motor Vehicle Mark Glover to hear all about the Computer Science course on offer at Petroc.
"I chose Petroc as it was the most convenient place to get to for me, living in Barnstaple, and I loved the sense of independence Petroc seemed to be offering with my A-levels
I always loved computing at GCSE and this course seemed to take it even further! Incorporating a lot of interesting mathematical topics too. I first picked computing because I loved the practical side, and programming.
There’s so many concepts that we explore that come across so mesmerising. Much of the theory was really enhanced my understanding of computing in a way that makes me a better programmer too.
I really enjoy Petroc’s atmosphere, it feels like a very communal place. there’s lots of places to hang out and study across campus and people here feel warm and expressive making it a positive creative environment"
