Hi,
I'm currently in my last year of college and I am going to study Computer Science. I noticed that you are now doing computer science at Lancaster. I have just received an offer from Lancaster but I don't know whether to accept it. I have read comments on the student room that says that the staff are "incompetent". Although the university as a whole is really well ranked, it is quite poor for computer science.


Please could you give me your opinion on what its like, specifically computer science at Lancaster, I already like the university :smile:


Thanks :smile:
