Projects Day 2011
The past quarter of a century has seen many changes. The Academy of Computer Science & Software Engineering may have a new name but it is proudly continuing its tradition of academic excellence. The Academy welcomes you to attend our 25th Annual Information Technology Projects Day. On display will be development projects and research at both undergraduate and postgraduate level
Top Achievers Lunch 2011
The Academy of Computer Science & Software Engineering honoured its top achieving students at a lunch during September 2011. These students represent the best and the brightest from both of the major disciplines within the Academy (Computer Science and Informatics) and from all cohorts (first year to honours level). In addition to receiving a certificate detailing their achievement and a light lunch the students were given presentation by senior post graduate students (Masters and PhD) regarding the fields of research within the Academy. It is the hope of the Academy that these students will continue to excel and study further within whatever discipline they choose.
