Graduates enrolled in the BCCS will be exposed to the application of Complexity in three main areas, Engineering, Life Sciences & Molecular Sciences. Each of these has in common the fact that Complexity dominates the application. The material will be delivered in nine 3 week integrated teaching sessions (modules). Engineering abounds with examples of Complexity; all man-made in one form or another. BCCS students will study three specially selected areas where the Faculty of Engineering has acknowledged expertise and where the theoretical underpinning is essential.
