Taught Modules

This is a list of modules delivered by the Department of Computer Science. Each page on this list contains links to the formal syllabus, online course material, and the organiser(s). Please note that the majority of DCS modules are examined in the Summer examination period, as such enrolment is only permitted for incoming study abroad students who are studying at Warwick in term 3. Deadlines for assessed work can be viewed on the departmental calendar.

Please note that module availability is subject to change, for example due to staff availability. Please note that alternative reassessment to in-person examinations will not be arranged, therefore incoming study abroad students who may require a resit by their home institution should ensure that they are available throughout the September Resit examination period. Examination dates are published by the Modules, Marks and Assessment team.

Please note that module availability for the 2023-24 academic year is not indicative of future module availability.
