Objectives
The courses Informatica I & II make an Industrial Engeneer a professional programmer knowing about the basic principles of modern programming languages and abstract data typing. He acquires insight in the functioning of a computer. He is able to apply these skills in other languages used by software applications and in other circumstances like PLC-driven machines. Moreover he developes his analytical skills, knows how to solve problems and formulates correct solutions.
Informatica II and Gegevensverwerking are based on this course.
