Hi
@elianaozinI'm a current Computer Science student at Aston, going into my final year, so hopefully I'll be able to help out!
As
@winterscoming said the main programming language at Aston is Java. In the first term we will be using an IDE called BlueJ and in the second term (and probably throughout second year) they will teach you to use Eclipse (you can choose a different one, but you won't be supported with different IDEs).
The first year Java modules are based on the BlueJ book - Objects First With Java - A Practical Introduction Using BlueJ - which can be found in the Aston library when you arrive. Make sure you pick up a copy, as all the lectures will be referencing it!
At Aston we do not use Python, but of course the skills you've already learned from it will become useful!
In the first year, you will also learn the basics of the web (HTML, CSS, JavaScript) and learn about Computer Systems (CPU, binary, etc) as well as Maths (which I've earned from other students is easy if you've already done A-Level Maths).
The most important thing though is to not worry. As long as you complete your work each week, you will be on track to get a great grade. Don't stress too much about getting started before the term starts.
If you PM, I can send you a few lectures and some course specifications, if you want though.
Also, don't forget to join the Computer Science society during Freshers Week! They will be a big help during your first year, for sure!
