Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Science
Most CS bachelor’s programs include core coursework in computer architecture and programming, data structures, algorithms, and logic and computation. However, given the breadth of the CS discipline, bachelor’s programs can differ significantly in terms of focus and available specializations. For example, some programs may heavily emphasize math, requiring courses in areas such as calculus, statistics, probability, and discrete mathematics.
What is the Computer Science?
Computer science is the study of the theory, experimentation, and engineering that form the basis for the design and use of computers. It is the scientific and practical approach to computation and its applications and the systematic study of the feasibility, structure, expression, and mechanization of the methodical procedures (or algorithms) that underlie the acquisition, representation, processing, storage, communication of, and access to, information. (from Wikipedia)
What can you do with a degree in computer science?
Computer science majors need to think analytically to devise systems and programs, but must also be detail-oriented enough to troubleshoot problems. They must be able to communicate with non-technical people to assess their needs and convey technical information in plain language.
Creativity is essential for those computer science majors who hope to come up with the latest app or technology gadget. Given the rapid rate of change within technology, computer science majors need to have a thirst for learning to keep up with the latest developments. (from the balance careers.com)
