Computer Science

doctorg · 2011-08-19 12:00:14

So I am looking to do Computer Science in either UCD or TCD but I don't know which one is better. I have enough points but I don't know which college has a better course. Can someone please enlighten me as to which course will give the most benefit in the future. Thansk!:)

UCD's new shiny updated course is a lot better than Trinity's tbh.

I'm doing UCD's old course which is a bit rubbish, but the new one that started last year is brilliant! There's going to be good and bad lecturers where ever you go.

You'll probably do a bit more maths in TCD and you seem to do a good bit more hardware in their course (But if you're particularly interested in HW I'd advise Electronic Eng over CS tbh, but that's my personal preference)
