“ The academic experience I had here at the University of Leicester was

great. My personal tutor was always there to support me, giving me

advice and guiding me. The Department was organised and the lecturers

very helpful and approachable – always there when we needed them.”Katerina Argyrou, BSc in Computer Science


Student Profile

Luana FagarasanBSc Computer Science, 1st year

Why did you apply toLeicester? Being from Romania, I chose to apply toLeicester because of its very goodreputation. But what made me chooseLeicester as my firm choice was thefeeling that the admissions teammanaged to give me: I belong here.

How do you find theDepartment?What I think makes the Department ofComputer Science stand out are thewarm, approachable and professionalstaff. The lectures, laboratories, helpsessions, meetings with your personal

tutor, the Student-Staff committee: theseare all designed to help you gather asmuch knowledge and as many skills asyou can. I find the course to bechallenging and well designed, preparingyou to work in the real world.

Why did you choose ComputerScience? I decided to study Computer Sciencebecause it came naturally to me, beingvery interested in mathematics andprogramming. Now, after one year, I canhonestly say that I have enjoyed all themodules that I have studied. And this isbecause, despite being difficult at times,somebody was there to explain and guideus. And believe me, when youunderstand a concept or a module

deeply, you can’t help saying that youenjoyed it!

How did you find your firstyear?The Department of Computer Sciencemade my first year at university a greatexperience that I wouldn’t evenconsider changing. I was surroundedby people who care, that help you getthrough difficulties and try to offer youas much of their knowledge aspossible, in order to help you progress,understand the real world, discoverand feel confident about yourself. So,my advice is to come to University ofLeicester and enjoy every second ofyour higher education experience,because it is amazing.


Your LearningExperience

FacilitiesThe Department has 24-hour accessgeneral-purpose laboratories, containingfully networked Windows/Linux dual-bootPCs and Macintosh computers, andwireless access for laptops. Departmentaltechnical support officers maintain thelaboratories. A networking laboratorymakes available specialised wired andwireless equipment. We also havededicated MSc laboratories, which areused by undergraduate students for partsof their project work. We have alaboratory dedicated to level two andlevel three students.

Teaching Methods and SupportOur approach to teaching includeslectures and laboratory classes togetherwith small group tutorials. Lecturesinclude innovative softwaredemonstrations as well as moretraditional presentations.

We have a team of graduate teachingassistants. These are PhD students whoalso organise computer laboratories andassist staff in their teaching duties. Theteaching perspectives of our graduateteaching assistants can be of enormousbenefit to our students, having onlyrecently completed their own batchelorsand masters degrees. Teaching assistants


also run regular help sessions thatprovide additional student support. Wealso employ full time teaching fellows.Each fellow normally holds a PhD andprovides valuable high-level teachingsupport for our undergraduates.

Our academic staff are friendly butprofessional, and are always happy tohelp you with queries regarding thecourse material outside of classroomhours.

All students have their own personaltutor who advises them about welfare,academic progress and careersdevelopment. You can see yourpersonal tutor at any time byappointment or office hour – they arehere to help you!

ProjectsCompanies tell us that project work isvital as a preparation for employment,and it is a prominent part of thedegrees. In the second year project, youwill be part of a team of students

working together to develop softwarethat has been commissioned by a realclient. These projects have been praisedby the BCS and allow you to gain a realinsight into realistic design andimplementation techniques andprofessional project management.

The third year individual project is achance to follow your own particularinterest in much greater depth, withone-to-one supervision. Popular recentprojects have included 3-D games,internet telephony, programmingrobots, and sophisticated e-commercesites for managing stock portfolios orauctioning cars. Students’ own ideashave included software for gardenlandscaping and a guitar tablatureeditor. Some students code complexsoftware such as a theorem prover and

investigate how these tools are usedwithin international companies such asIntel.

AssessmentState-of-the-art web-based materials,automated feedback and markingsystems, on-line tests and electroniccoursework submission all provide anexcellent modern learning environment.Coursework contributes to your marks,especially in practical modules. Apartfrom project work, which is assessed bycoursework only, all modules areassessed partly by coursework andpartly by examination. Usually thecontribution of coursework increases inmodules that are more practical innature, and can constitute up to 50%of your final module mark.

“My second year project which

involved working in a team was

an excellent experience. It

certainly has given me a good

grounding in terms of working in

a team.”Victoria Hinds


Some of our graduates go on to studyMScs in Computer Science, managementor management and IT, at Leicester orelsewhere. The Department offers one-year advanced taught MSc courses inAgile Software Engineering Techniques,Computer Science, ComputationalMethods, Distributed Systems, SoftwareEngineering, Software Engineering forFinancial Services, and Web Applicationsand Services.

Those with ComputerScience degrees are also especially well-suited to working in the research anddevelopment of new cutting-edgetechnologies.

Living at Leicester

About the University

Some universities consider their primarypurpose to be high quality research,others concentrate on excellentteaching. Here at Leicester we think thatthe two are not only complementary,they’re inseparable. We believe thatteaching is more inspirational whendelivered by passionate scholarsengaged in world-changing research –and that research is stronger whendelivered in an academic communitythat includes students.

We think that a university should beabout empowering people to explorewhat they don’t know. We achieve thisthrough passionate, dedicated researchand teaching. When we were namedUniversity of the Year for 2008-9 by theTimes Higher Education, the judgesapplauded Leicester’s very differentapproach, calling us “elite withoutbeing elitist.” Of Britain’s top 15universities only one – Leicester –exceeds its government benchmarks forinclusivity. Our dedication to providingan excellent student experience can beseen in our consistent performance inthe National Student Survey. In 200892% of our full-time students weresatisfied with their course. This is a levelof satisfaction exceeded only by

Cambridge amongst mainstreamuniversities teaching full-time studentsin England.

With these ideas at heart, Leicester isre-framing the values that governacademia and re-defining what auniversity needs to be in the 21stcentury; we are constantly finding newways of being a leading university.

About the city of Leicester

Leicester is lively and diverse with all theactivities and facilities you would expectfrom a major city. This is combined witha friendly and safe atmosphere.

Developments in the city have includedthe opening of the Curve Theatre withits unique ‘inside out’ design where thestage is visible from the street. Furtherdevelopments in the city’s cultural
