Computer Science, Sofware Engineering & IT
Computing technologies are everywhere: camera phones, mp3 players, technologies for talking,gaming, file-sharing, and accessing money via ATMs. We interact with computers and software
hundreds of times a day. Computer science lies at the heart of the technology revolution. It is
based on how we use algorithms to store and transform information – the basic building block of
computing. Computer science encompasses studies from both science and engineering. Thescience side deals with the understanding of fundamental issues in computing; the practical
application of principles and maintenance of computer systems is drawn from the engineering
field.
Careers
Computer scientists can be found working in commerce, biotechnology, manufacturing and the
software industry. They are employed as systems engineers, consultants, research scientists, programmers and in management positions.
