Informatics Showcase
What will you be doing in Informatics?
Working with information and data from around the world, and across a
range of disciplines. You'll be learning how computers can be used for accessing, manipulating, transforming, visualising and integrating information, and you'll publish your graphics and programs directly back onto the Web. You'll be working on problems from domains as diverse as commerce, health, society, linguistics, science, and the arts, and you'll produce genuinely useful and practical solutions and applications.
For a more practical idea of the sorts of things you might do in the Informatics subjects, check out the examples below. These represent the sorts of applications and projects that you might expect to be involved with over the course of your degree. The earlier examples represent the types of things you might do in the first year Informatics subjects (Informatics-1: Practical Computing and Informatics-2: People, Data and the Web), with the later, more complex examples representing what you will achieve later in your degree.
