Computer Science prizes

Prizes and Awards are a key part of the University and the College. They give students a great form of recognition for their work over the Academic Year and create a lasting connection between Alumni donors and the current student body. The prizes often have cash rewards, establish networks between the College and graduate employers, and look great on any CV come graduation.
