| Description | Guest speakers present seminars on topics relevant to the work in which Computer Science / Software Engineering (CS/SE) graduates are frequently involved on entering Industry or Commerce. The speakers are chosen to have particular experience in industrial/commercial application of CS/SE, employing or working with graduates in CS/SE or related areas, or legal or managerial aspects of work that requires such graduates. Each speaker provides handouts on his/her chosen topic (usually available either from the School Library or online via the syllabus web page for the module a few days before the speaker's lecture) and a technical report title (available online via the syllabus web page near the end of the semester). | ||||||
