Good units

Foundations of Computation

Became the basis for my 3rd year project.

Functional Programming

Many fall, but some remain. Good for L&S.

Networking

I liked a Russell unit and did well in it!

Logic and Semantics of Programming Languages

Guy was a fantastic lecturer, great content too.

Entrepreneurship

Saved by my group and the 2nd coursework video, otherwise nothing special.

Tricky units

Databases

Only useful in teaching SQL.

Computer Systems Architecture 2 (the courseworks)

A long essay marked by Russell, followed by long-winded traceroute task.

Human-Computer Interaction and User Experience

A group project parallel with ESP adds to the stress.

Experimental Systems Project

A learning experience.

Software Processes and Modelling

Very little support and very isolating, but that's 2020/21's fault.
