Mini lecture

Saturday, February 14, 2026. (Kyoto Ekimae Satellite)

Recommending Programming for Liberal Arts Students
Lecturer Heikun An(Professor)
Summary Here at our university, some degree of programming skill is essential when learning about information technology (IT). However, students who did not major in IT at the undergraduate level might feel uncertain about how to approach programming.
Therefore, in this mini lecture, I will introduce our university’s IT curriculum for students with no prior experience in information technology, using the following courses I teach as an example:
・Web Programming 1
・Introduction to Computer Programming
In Web Programming 1, you will study programming languages HTML and CSS, and with those skills, create a website that even IT beginners can make. Additionally, in Introduction to Computer Programming, you will learn Python, the most popular programming language known for its simple syntax, low learning curve, and widespread use in fields such as AI and data science.
