Really enjoyed studying computer science here. The lectures are all very informal and you quickly get to know the department members on a first name basis if you hang out in the cs coffee area often. There are a few computer labs around exclusively for cs students (secured and windowless) with decent workstations. read more

Very flexible course structure that you can try out other subjects as well. Personal tutoring is not the best but it does have a very low student to teacher ratio so you get a lot of contact time. read more
