About our Computing Tasters
Join us online to discover what it’s like to be a Computing student at Buckingham!
Taster Theme
Each taster includes a themed session, so you can experience what it is like to attend a Computing tutorial.
This taster’s theme is: How to be a Digital Detective, where we’ll be exploring how you can utilise your investigative skills in the digital world. We will show you how to track which camera or smartphone was used to take a photo, and include an investigation into how to establish whether a photo is genuine or photoshopped.
Dr Athar Ali will be hosting this Taster, whose research interests span image and video coding, multimedia information security, systems engineering, system-of-systems, and machine learning.
