A twist on the use of REPL, which stands for read–eval–print loop in computer programming. This repository aims to become a central place to share resources that other learners have found useful, especially in the context of studying computer science at the bachelor level.
🏫 As the first cohort of students enrolling in the 100% online BSc Computer Science offered by Goldsmiths, University of London, it is in our interest to cooperate in order to maximize our chances of celebrating all together when we graduate.
Good luck to all and may this path fulfill you, knowing that you will find support along the way!

There is a total of 13 possible modules in Level 6. Out of these, 6 need to be taken along with a final project in order to graduate. A student may either choose a specialism (see below) but may also opt against a specialism to be able to study any 6 of the following modules.
- 3D Graphics and Animation (CM3045)
- Advanced Web Development (CM3035)
- Artificial Intelligence (CM3020)
- Data Science (CM3005)
- Databases and Advanced Data Techniques (CM3010)
- Games Development (CM3030)
- Intelligent Signal Processing (CM3065)
- Interaction Design (CM3055)
- Machine Learning and Neural Networks (CM3015)
- Mobile Development (CM3050)
- Natural Language Processing (CM3060)
- Physical Computing and Internet of Things (CM3040)
- Virtual Reality (CM3025)
Each specialism contains five prescribed modules from the above 13. All five must be completed along with one elective module from any other specialism. The specialisms are:
- Data Science (CM3005-01)
- Games Development (CM3030-01)
- Machine Learning & Artificial Intelligence (CM3020-01)
- Physical Computing & the Internet of Things (CM3040-01)
- User Experience (CM3055-01)
- Virtual Reality (CM3025-01)
- Web & Mobile Development (CM3035-01)
A final project must also be completed to graduate. If a student is opting for a specialism, they are strongly encouraged to select a relevant topic for the final project.
