CS Learning Centre

If you are a first-year student, the CS Learning centre is for you! The centre can:

  • Explain the principles of computer science;
  • Help you find bugs in your programs;
  • Answer questions about course material;
  • Help you to study more effectively.

If you are a second or later-year student, you should go to the CS Consulting Centre.

What can the Learning Centre offer?

The Learning Centre has a number of facilities that you can use:

  • A library of Java and general computer science textbooks;
  • Experienced third-year and postgraduate students are available to answer any questions you may have;
  • Seminars on advanced computer science topics are presented by staff or students.

The CSLC also provides an alternative work area, equipped with laptop computers, a comfortable group-work area, and desks for studying.
You can come and go at any time during opening hours and use the facilities — no appointment is needed.

Where is the CS Learning centre?

The CSLC is in room 1064 of the Plaza building, directly opposite the first year programming labs.
