Take a trip through the \ ;history of computer science on this day to Bletchley Park and the Nation al Museum of Computing.

\n\n

Bletchley Park was the central location for British Codebreaking dur ing World War II. The hard work of the men and women who worked in secrec y \;at Bletchley over the course of WWII is said to have shortened th e war by 2-4 years\, saving millions of lives on both sides. Previously t he workplace of Alan Turing\, recently played by Benedict Cumberbatch in The Imitation Game\, the site has now be turned into a museum focusing on the work and lives of those who were based there. There are currently ex hibitions on how the men and women lived during the time\, cyber security and how enemy messages were intercepted and decoded giving Britain vital information.

\n\n

Also included in your ticket is entry to the National Museum of Computing. Here you ca n discover the rich history of computing. \;The museum has a working Colossus\, the first electronic computer\, which is well named due to its size. The museum has a variety of exhibits on the development of compute rs from the WITCH computer\, the worlds oldest working digital computer\, for research\, to the production of computers for the classroom to the t echnology of the internet today. The museum also features a exhibit on th e heroines of computing\, who are often absent from many peoples'\;&nb sp\;minds when they think of computing.

\n\n

This trip is open to al l Computer Science students and all students living in halls. Coach trans port to and from the venue is included in your ticket price.
