INVENTING TOMORROW TODAY
THE SCHOOL OF ELECTRONICS, ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING AND COMPUTER SCIENCE

The school is home to the Institute of Electronics, Communications and Information Technology (ECIT) which is a unique research and innovation centre where staff and students work closely with world-leading companies and entrepreneurs, taking a business focused and entrepreneurial approach to tackling three areas of the global challenge.

The EEECS Summer School will provide you the chance to visit ECIT and other local companies.

School of Electronics, Electrical Engineering and Computer Science

We offer a unique four week programme delivered by the School of Electronics, Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at Queen’s University Belfast.

We are excited to offer two technical modules to our summer school students which cover fundamentals of microelectronics, electrical engineering and computer programming.

Students will experience hands-on learning through problem solving using interactive exercises. Moreover, students will be facilitated to work as a team and present cutting edge research problems to their peers as a part of group project.

MODULE 3

Computing

Module 3 will cover the fundamentals of computer programming. It will develop the student's ability to employ and adapt programming fundamentals through problem solving and software development. It will focus on the principles of object-oriented design. It will use a high-level programming language and IDE to introduce objects, classes, methods and data types. By the end of the course students will be able to develop and deploy small software programs.
