5. What are the strengths and limitations of this specialization?

Strengths:

• Well-structured beginner curriculum spanning programming, systems, and math.
• Developed by the University of London, offering academic credibility and a shareable certificate.
• Includes creative assignments that support both conceptual understanding and practical coding.

Limitations:

• This is a “taster” series and does not supply full academic credits toward a BSc program. It’s not aligned with the full longer modules of the university degree.
• Heavy theory (especially in “How Computers Work”) may require supplemental materials or patience.
