Why Study Computer Science?
Over the past 30 years, computing has dramatically changed almost every aspect of life. Data is collected and processed at a scale no one would have been able to imagine 50 years ago, and information is available everywhere thanks to a combination of servers, the Internet, and mobile technologies. Entertainment is totally different than in the past, with games, computer generated special effects, and content delivery fundamentally changing how people spend free time. We’re starting to see artificial intelligence become mainstream, with personal digital assistants, self-driving cars, and more. All of these changes are possible because of advancing technology and software – in short, because of computer science – and you can be one of the people that helps shape the world of the future. Thinking about what you will do after graduation? Jobs in computing are consistently ranked among the most desirable and rewarding careers. Read more about career prospects by following the link.
