I am learning Computer Science at the University of Salford. I decided to study my course at Salford because:
- The staff are so friendly
- It is easy to get to by train
- They use GNU/Linux (some of the time)
My course is provided by the School of Computing, Science & Engineering, which is based in the Newton Building. The Newton Building was not built recently, and would benefit from some improvements. If it were my decision i would:
- Improve the lighting in the second floor computer labs
- Fix the heating!
- Decorate the staff offices
- paint the walls,
- replace the carpet,
- replace the curtains with blinds.
- Improve the building entrance
Computer Science
During the first semester of my first year the degree has several modules. Among the modules I am studying are:

- This includes a study of the architecture and operation of a simple CPU.
- Study Skills
- This module covers Personal Development Planing
- Web Page Design
- This is all about HTML 5 and CSS.
