Skills Attributes and Employment Development   

Studying Bsc. Computing first year we are supposed to study four modules. One of them is "Study skills". In this module we get to learn how to enhance our presentation and public speaking skills as well as work in a group and as an individual. The other thing we get to do is to write our blogs. It helps in our writing as well as the way we can express ourselves to other peoples. I have high hopes from this module that it can enhance my skills of writing and increase my leadership qualities.  

One of the other module that we are currently involved is "Problem Solving for IT" it teaches us how to handle problems with little effort. Being an IT student as a problem solver; we do not know what kind of problem we would face in future but this module help us to be prepared. Using  the techniques from this module I hope to learn algorithms, flowcharts and database management using Microsoft excel and access which will guide me in my career while  I am working or on when I am on a job interview.

As a computer student programming is very important to us because this is what represents us. The third module we are currently studying is "Further programming"; this module deals with java programming. In near future we would be developing software using various programming languages that we are taught in this module. I expect to learn the programming language and graphical user interface from this module so latter in my future while creating website or application it might come in handy.

The final module I am currently studying is "Logic" which deals with mathematical problems. In this module we get to learn Truth tables, sets, binary, etc. It will aid me in sharpening my mind while thinking different ways to solve one problem that is essential while coding a program in near future.
