In an era of rapid technological innovation, data and the capacity to process it are the most valuable assets in many fields. Studying this subject, you will learn how data is represented, stored and processed in computer systems. Extending your high-level technological literacy, the subject introduces you to a way of thinking that uses abstraction to move from low level hardware concepts to higher level programming concepts. Working through the natural progression of related concepts in computer programming, you will first explore how circuits can implement logic, then how logic lets us implement computer architecture (memory, processors), and how assembly language lets us write programs that manipulate data, before circling back to the relationship between programs and logic.

Get an introductory understanding of the links between logic, reasoning, data, and computation. Learn how data is represented, stored, and processed in computer systems.
