Computer science

Statement Since my acquaintance with Intel 586 during my primary school, I’ve had a magic relationship with computer science. The seed of the desire to be involved in the information world has been sown in the bottom of my heart at an early age. My decision of study engineering during my undergraduate period was actually derived from the readings concerning computer science and raw contact with the science and mathematics in my spare time. I was deeply convinced by my interests in logical…

what exactly computer science is or what the people who choose this as a career path actually do on a day to day basis. Many think that those who deal with computers just sit and play games or sit and endlessly input data into a computer. However, this is not the case, there is a scientific part of computer science that gives individuals freedom to be creative and learn about new and exciting developments in the computerized world. There are many career opportunities in computer science and…

Unlike most other majors, a Computer Science major writes in a very unique way. We write in a way that is probably much like a foreign language to the untrained eye. Even more complicated, however, there is more than one language. Depending on the language you prefer, the company you are working for, or what suits the program best, is generally going to be the deciding factor as to what language you write in. As a normal student writes an essay, a Computer Science major writes a program. We use…

Project: Personal Knowledge Plan As a major in computer science, with minimal knowledge about computers, I have a plethora of ignorance on the subject. I am hoping to have a bachelors in computer science after 4 years at UNF, and the deciding factor in my major of choice is the fact that it encompasses a wide variety of jobs that typically pay a substantial wage and decent opportunities for location of work. These options would allow me to find an area I enjoy in a place I like with a…

When I was a child, most of my time was spent on the computer. I wasn’t very interested with the physical computer, rather I was interested in everything the computer could do. It was more fun for me to tinker with the settings than to play games. As I got older in elementary school, I discovered website and game building sites. I built sites on my computer for everything from a fake business that sold toys to a page to host all the pictures from my semi-annual Barbie fashion shows. Although…

1. What developed your interest in computer science? How will the EP program support your future goals? My passion for computer science did not develop because of a single occurrence, but rather it grew steadily over a period of several years. My introduction to programming came in elementary school when my sixth grade teacher set aside time each week to teach the class basic programming concepts using JavaScript. I am grateful for this early exposure because individuals from other…

This quote by President Obama, which hung in my AP Computer Science classroom, resonated with me from the first day. The class introduced me to the world of coding, but also inspired me to create and learn beyond the classroom. Most importantly, this class bonded a group of my classmates who shared a passion for computer science. At first we helped each other with labs and debugging in the Java based class; but as our knowledge grew of computer science, we began to learn how to apply these…

My interest in computer science kindled when I started playing games long time ago. I have imagined a kind of game that existed in real life, in which we had all the senses and broke the screen. As I grew older, I learned that all the games were programmed with machine languages. And therefore, when I had the chance to select my major before the university, I chose Computer Science without any doubt or hesitation. During my undergraduate study at Iowa University, what I learn most are basic…

admit to the School of Informatics and Computing. Although I started the course with a basic understanding of what the difference between informatics and computer science was, I continue to learn the difference in the details between the two fields. I have declared informatics as my major, but the class has sparked an interest in computer science and I have been considering a minor in the field. During my last two years of high school I took programming and advanced programing while designing a…

intelligent made me work harder and try to explore a little beyond others. Science, in general, was always my primary interest. In the vast world of science, it is easy to build an interest in any of its branches. At that age, around 9-10, instead of being super interested in cartoons and animations, I was interested in science fiction movies, especially Hacker related. The amusement originated from their control over the computer, it seemed like a muscle, however, later on, I came to an…
