Computer Science as a Career Path
introduction
In order to choose courses and finally the desired career path, we can ask many important questions. Why did we choose this field? Are we going to be it? There will be jobs for us when we finish our education? Will we enjoy our work?
This chapter highlights some of the kinds of questions for anyone contemplating
degree in computer science or a related field.

Part 1 Why Computer Science may be
Right Field for You
Reasons to Major in Computer Science
Almost everything we do is affected by the computation. Today's generation of college students, dubbed the Millennials, is not surprised by this statement. They have grown with the computer, internet, instant communication, and electronic
entertainment. They embrace new technology and hope to do fantastic things.
. A lot of people in the labor force resisting change requiring technology. They often turn to the youngest employee to take over the technology and make choices that will have important consequences.
 To be competitive, businesses must continue to employ trained professionals not only to produce high quality products for today, but also to plan creative scientific and engineering advances for the future.
A person who is part of the computer industry can choose from a variety of
areas where problems are interesting and challenging many need to be solved.
In addition to all the work and communication business that might first come to
thoughts, people with a degree in computer science to work on the problem of
all spectrum of life. A brief overview of technical articles highlighting such areas as developing electronic voting for the election of state and national levels, using signals from
wireless devices to update the vehicle and pedestrian trips to make the best decisions for the management of traffic signals or construction zones, and using a supercomputer-powered "virtual earthquake" to learn the benefits of early warning
The system uses a 3D model of the actual geographical location and damage scenarios.

Part 1 • Why Computer Science field may be right for you
Some of the issues that is being done now by computer professionals in the medical world, including understanding how the human brain works by modeling the brain activation patterns with an emphasis on helping people affected by autism or disorders such as paranoid schizophrenia, adjust a variety of useful tools for the physically impaired, from a programmed robot prosthesis to digital "vision"; gathering information from the pacemaker implanted in order to make timely decisions in times of crisis; developing a computer system that can recognize human emotions by analyzing human faces in real-time, and develop a human-computer interface that enables
computer to be operated solely by human movement in order to manipulate virtual objects.
Field of security and law enforcement presents many challenges to computer professionals, and includes: the U.S. Government doing normal tentangperilaku observational studies in the online world with the hope of developing techniques to uncover the online activity of terrorist groups.

certain fields filled by individuals with specific capabilities. It makes sense that people who are successful computer science students will have many common characteristics.
Read the descriptions below and decide if that sounds like you.
Primarily, you have to love the challenge of solving problems. Computer science
more about finding a solution to the problem than it is about using the computer when the hardware or programming language. Solve problems need to be creative and "think outside the box." You have to be willing to try different things
of a solution "acceptable". you enjoy working with technology and enjoy being a lifelong learner. You enjoy puzzles and working tenaciously to find a solution. You may not realize that hours have flown by as you narrow in on the answer. You enjoy building things, both in the real and in the "virtual world." You can see how to customize certain objects to make it work in a specific environment. You like to handle large projects and see them through to completion. You build things that are useful to the people and that will have a positive impact on their lives.

Chapter 0 • Computer Science as a career path
To be successful in the workplace, you also must be a good communicator. You should be able to explain your plans and solutions for both technical and non-technical people. You should be able to write clearly and concisely in a technical environment. Since most of the projects involve several people, it is important to work well in groups. If you plan to become a manager or run your own company, it is
very important to be able to work with different personalities.
Frederick P. Brooks, who is known for leading the team that developed the operating system for the IBM System/360, wrote a book in 1970 called The Mythical Man-Month Essays on Software Engineering.

Section 2 College Experience: Computer Disciplines
and Majors to Choose From
Most professionals in the computing industry have at least a bachelor's degree
in mathematics, computer science, or a related field. Many have advanced degrees,
especially those engaged primarily in research or education.
IBM System/360 was a mainframe computer system family announced by IBM in 1964. it is the first family of computers makes a clear distinction between the architecture and implementation, allowing IBM to release a suite of compatible designs at price points are different. that design is considered by many as one of the most successful computers in history, influencing computer design for years to come.
 Part 2 • College Experience: Computer Disciplines and Majors to Choose From
Computing is a broad discipline that cuts other fields such as mathematics, science, engineering, and business. Because such a wide selection,
it is impossible for anyone to be an expert in all of them. A career that involves computing requires an individual to focus his efforts while earning a bachelor's degree. There are different degrees that involve computing offered at institutions of higher education. This title can even come from different departments within the same institution. Although the degree of computation can share some of the same courses, they also can be very different from each other. Choosing between them can be confusing.
Most degree programs at colleges and universities follow these guidelines. The report states at the outset that "it is important that the computing
disciplines attract qualified students from a broad cross section of the population and
prepare them to become professionals capable and responsible, scientists, and engineers "1. There are countless opportunities for individuals who are dedicated and the curious who are willing to put in the hard work to get a degree. Those students who are also members of underrepresented minority will find the field to be full of prospects.

 Computer Science
Computer science as a discipline covers a range of topics from theory
and a foundation for the development of cutting-edge algorithms. Computer work
Scientists are trained to do can be organized into three categories:
• Design and implement software that is useful.
• Designing new ways to use computers.
• Develop effective ways to solve computing problems.
Computer science degree consists of courses that include theory of computation, programming, and mathematics. These courses eventually develop logic and reasoning are integral to being a computer scientist skills. The sequence of mathematics including calculus I and II (and in many cases, calculus III), and discrete mathematics. some students also learn linear algebra and probability and statistics. Computer science degree offers a comprehensive foundation that enables graduates to understand and adapt to new technologies and new ideas. Computer science departments at universities are often found as part of the science, engineering, or mathematics division. Computer scientists take on challenging programming jobs, supervise others
programmers, and other programmers advise on the best approach to be taken. Computer science researchers are working with scientists from other fields to do such things as using databases to create and manage new knowledge, create a robot that will be practical and intelligent maid, and use the computer to help solve the mystery of human DNA.

Computer Engineering
For students who are more interested in understanding and designing the actual
computing devices, many opportunities are available in computer engineering,
relating to the design and construction of computer and computerbased
systems. Computer engineering degree involves the study of hardware, software,
communications, and interactions between them, and a customizable mix
of Electrical Engineering degree with a Computer Science degree.
The curriculum includes courses in computer engineering theories, principles, and practices of traditional electrical engineering and mathematics through calculus sequence of standards and so on. This knowledge is then applied in the course of dealing with the design of computers and computer-based devices. In addition, the course computer programming is required so that engineers can develop software for digital devices and their interfaces nya.Saat, the region is important for embedded systems involving computer engineers. It involves the development of a device that has software and hardware embedded in them such as mobile phones, digital music player, alarm system, health.

Information Systems
Information systems (IS) field focuses on integrating technology into business
and other companies to manage their information in an efficient and safe manner.
In this area, the technology is seen as an instrument to produce, process,
and distribute information. Therefore, the focus in this area is on business and organizational principles.
Most IS programs in the business school of a university or college, and IS degrees combine business and computer courses, and math is required to have a focus of business applications. This title can be found under programs such as Computer Information Systems (CIS) or Management Information Systems (MIS). Degree program name is not always consistent, but they all have their focus on business principles and applications of technology with less emphasis on theoretical computer science or computer engineering digital design.
IS specialists must understand the factors both technical and organizational, and should be able to help organizations determine how to use information and technology to deliver competitive advantage. These professionals serve as a bridge between the technical community and the community in the management of an organization.
They are called upon to determine how best to use technology, manage information, and communicate effectively.
 Information Technology
An Information Technology (IT) program prepares students to meet the business needs komputerTeknologi, government health care, schools and organizations lainnya.TI has an emphasis on the technology itself, more than the information
handled, the theory behind it, or how to design hardware or software. IT professionals working with computer systems to ensure they work properly, safely, is enhanced and maintained, and replaced as appropriate.
Since computers have become an integral part of the work environment for all
employees at all levels of the organization, many companies have to keep departments from IT workers. Organizations of all types depend on the information
technology on a daily basis and the need for qualified workers.
IT degree programs are typically found in business or management information
department, or as an alternative to a degree in the department of computer science.
IT program in the department of business focus on using the application to meet the requirements, networking, systems integration, and resource planning.
 Chapter 0 • Computer Science as a career path emphasis on programming for computer users, with a focus on writing software for
interactive web pages, multimedia, and cloud computing.
IT specialists select appropriate hardware and software products for an organization and then integrating the products in the existing infrastructure. They install and customize and maintain the necessary software. Another example of the responsibilities include network and security administration, design and implementation of Web pages, multimedia resource development, email monitoring system, and installation of communication components. User support and training are important responsibilities for IT professionals juga.Rekayasa Software
Software engineering (SE) is the discipline of developing and maintaining large software systems. This system should behave reliably and efficiently, be affordable, and meets all the requirements set for them. SE tried to integrate the theory of computer science and mathematics to the principles of practical techniques developed for physical objects.
SE degree program is closely related to the level of a computer science program, and they are usually offered in the same department. In fact, most of the computer science curriculum programs require one or more software engineering. An SE degree can be considered as a specialized degree within the boundaries of the field of computer science.
SE students learn more about the software reliability and maintenance of the system and focus more on techniques for developing and maintaining software is engineered to be right from the start. Most programs require students to participate in the SE group projects for the development of software to be used in earnest by others. Students assess customer needs, developing software that can be used, test
product thoroughly, and analyze its usefulness.
Professionals who holds a software engineering expect to be involved
the creation and maintenance of large software systems that can be used by different organizations. Their focus will be on design principles that make the system viable for many people and through the years. Although the title of the SE has recognized the description, software engineers run
label only work in the workplace. There is no standard definition for
This term when used in the job description, and its meaning can vary between employers. An employer may think a programmer or an IT specialist as a software engineer.
