Explanation of Pre-requisites

This module continues the project initiated in MC312.

Course Description

The purpose of the Computer Science Project (Modules MC312 and MC313) is for the student to combine skills acquired in the other Computer Science modules in the production of a suitable project. In doing this, the student will assimilate information from a variety of sources and demonstrate the ability to pursue independent study.

It is intended that the project should produce some end product for users other than the author. A collection of course exercises, a literature search or a descriptive evaluation would not be suitable.

Aims

In MC313, the student will complete the project work planned and started in MC312 and submit a substantial Computer Science project.

Objectives

Transferable Skills

Details of Assessment

The assessment of MC313 is broken down as follows:
1.
5%: Informal interview before Easter.
2.
10%: Oral examination and demonstration of software.
3.
80%: Final project report.
4.
5%: Mark for student effort and participation, based on a weekly diary.
