Year 1
The first two years (called Junior Fresh and Senior Fresh in Trinity) are devoted to laying down the foundations for the senior years. You will study topics in statistics, management science, business studies, economics, mathematics, computer science and end user computing.
Full Year Modules
Students take the following modules from the School of Computer Science and Statistics:
(Semester 1 & 2, 10 ECTS) This module covers a range of subjects in management science at an\ introductory level.
And the following modules delivered by Trinity Business School:
BUU11570 Enacting Sustainable Development (Semesters 1 5 ECTS)
BUU11580 Fundamentals of Management and Organisation (Semesters 2 5 ECTS)
Semester One Modules
Students take the following modules from the School of Computer Science and Statistics:
(Semester 1, 5 ECTS) The purpose of this module is to provide an introduction to the practical uses of computer applications particularly in the area of spreadsheets, web page design and development, and programming language.
(Semester 1, 5 ECTS) This module provides an introductory course in computer programming. This course takes a practical approach to teaching the fundamental concepts of computer programming with a strong emphasis on tutorial and laboratory work and is an important vehicle for developing students’ analytical and problem-solving skills. This module aims to give students an understanding of how computers can be employed to solve real-world (albeit small) problems.
And the following semester one modules delivered by other schools:
MAU11E01 Engineering Mathematics I (5 credits)
ECU11013 Introduction to Economics A I (5 credits)
Semester Two Modules
Students take the following modules from the School of Computer Science and Statistics:
(Semester 2, 5 credits) An introduction to basic statistical concepts. Students will learn how to explain basic statistical theory, apply the techniques to data and describe and interpret the results of their analyses in a detailed fashion. R studio will be used to analyse data.
(Semester 2, 5 ECTS) This course introduces students to the object-oriented approach to program design and teaches them how to write programs in an object-oriented language (in this case Java). Students also have the opportunity to reinforce their problem solving and programming skills by developing solutions to programming problems and implementing those solutions as object-based programs.
And the following semester two modules delivered by other schools:
MAU11E02 Engineering Mathematics II (5 credits)
ECU11014 Introduction to Economics B I (5 credits)
