Engineering and Computing Science at Oxford
The course develops from Engineering Science, which uses mathematics and physics to create principles for successful solutions to engineering problems. Computer Science is similarly concerned with computing and its uses. For example, one objective of good programming is to create programs which are provably safe and can therefore be applied to controlling nuclear reactors, aircraft and medical services; it is by understanding both the engineering problems and the computing design that this is achieved.
