COMPUTER Science students at the University of Bradford are set to benefit from a £600,000 investment in their learning facilities this autumn.
The refurbishment of the computer suite will create four new labs in the university's Horton D building, designed to encourage team-based learning and collaboration.
Savas Konur, head of the university's School of Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, and Electronics, said: "The refurbishments of our computer science labs will create an exceptional and visually appealing learning environment, providing an outstanding workspace experience for students and staff.
"This open and collaborative atmosphere fosters student collaboration and innovation, enhancing the pride of the university and the city of Bradford."
Software developer Neil Bharat Patel, who was named Young Achiever of the Year in the Yorkshire Asian Young Achiever Awards (YAYAs) 2022, is a former computer science student at the university.
He said: "The course gave me all the fundamentals of software development and the architecture of systems.
"It gave me the confidence to apply for IBM and I was lucky enough to secure a placement with the London office.
"I secured employment straight after university."
Places for Computer Science at the University of Bradford are available through Clearing.
