What is computer science?

Hi Joy, Computer Science is the study of computers and computational systems. Computer scientists deal mostly with software and software systems; this includes their theory, design, development, and application. Principal areas of study within Computer Science include artificial intelligence, computer systems and networks, security, database systems, human computer interaction, vision and graphics, numerical analysis, programming languages, software engineering, bioinformatics and theories of computing. Computer scientists design and analyze algorithms to solve programs and study the performance of computer hardware and software. Many people incorrectly believe that a computer science career is all about programming. While it is true that most entry-level jobs after a Bachelor's degree involve programming, most practitioners eventually graduate to other responsibilities such as design, coordination, testing, planning and management. With advanced coursework and a Master's degree, you can work in an area of specialization that uses your advanced coursework. Hope this information helps. Please feel free to revert.
