At CSS, we are home both to experienced veterans and complete beginners. For those with zero prior experience in programming, fret not! At the start of the year, we offer a short foundational course in Python to bring you up to speed.
Throughout the year, CSS members have countless opportunities to put their skills to the test by participating in national competitions. In hackathons like NUS Hack&Roll or iNTUition, you can ‘hack’ together a prototype app in 24 hours. CTFs like SMU Whitehacks, Cyberthon or the Cyber Defenders Discovery Camp let you race other teams to hack (the real one) into mock environments. Finally, some members compete in the prestigious National Olympiad in Informatics (NOI).
However, CSS is not just about learning — we’re a CCA, not H2 computing! Although computer science can sometimes be a solitary affair, we do our best to make CSS a place where you can make memories and form friendships.
In all of our courses, you will have opportunities to collaborate with and learn from other members. We also have semi-regular bonding sessions, where we play games that are sometimes computer-themed and many times not. You can also look forward to our club camp and possible learning journeys outside regular CCA hours!
