B.Sc. Computer Science

Computer science is the study of computers and computing, including their theoretical and algorithmic foundations, hardware and software, and their uses for processing information. The discipline of computer science includes the study of algorithms and data structures, computer and network design, modeling data and information processes, and artificial intelligence. 
     Technology has taken over the world. The recent advancements have uplifted the status of technology and science related to it. The computer and the internet both are one of the most powerful inventions of humankind. Working together, they work like a beast.

Why Computer Science?
Every now and then, we come across an application that contributes to the world in some or the other way. Newer technologies like Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, Deep Learning, Robotics, and IOT raise the bar higher day by day.
•    We are living in an information age, the mechanically progressed period. Software engineering- the name itself says everything; it’s the study of PCs- regardless of whether it be equipment, programming, systems administration, or whatever else you consider.
•    From maintaining a business to learning a course, CS is engaged with the type of sites or portable applications.
•    From framing an organization to playing a game, CS is there, like social media or gaming applications.
•    From flying to driving a vehicle, CS is available as Artificial Intelligence, ML, Robotics, or IoT.
•    From planning craftsmanship to decorating a home (inside plan), CS is there as Multimedia, Design, Graphics, Animations, etc.

Why Should One Opt For Computer Science As A Career Choice?
•    The field provides nearly recession-proof jobs. Employees usually have secure jobs with flexible timings.
•    There is a strong opportunity for creativity and innovation, which is of high value.
•    Work from home can be implemented without many backlashes. Post the pandemic; it has been promoted a lot as a measure of cost-cutting.
•    Computer Science, today, has a wide application across industries, starting from companies like Google to even Hotels, all require computers. Someone has to develop software and hardware keeping in mind the variety of clientele requirements; this is where computer science and Information Technology students come into play.

•    Expertise in computer science helps one solve complex problems and thus improves one's capacity to think outside the box.

Job Prospects
•    Computer Programmer- The person writes codes to develop programs for the company.
•    Hardware Engineer- In this job, the engineer develops, implements, and checks the suitability and functionality of computers' hardware components.
•    Web Developer and designer - The person plans and develops websites.
•    Systems Analyst- A person who analyses and develops techniques to solve problems using information technology.
•    Video game developer- As the name suggests, the employee is tasked with developing video games for the company.
•    Other non-traditional jobs include- Nuclear Engineer, Materials scientist, Biochemist, etc.
•    Web developer and designer.
•    DBMS.
•    QA Engineer (tester)

Future of computer science
It's absolutely not needed to tell the importance of computer science in the modern world. Computer science has been here for mere more or less 40 years unlike other technologies that we use today. Many think that it has just started and has a long way to go.
We have still very little success in the field of artificial intelligence and machine learning. That's why it's becoming one of the most interested subjects among students and scientists. We need more speed and more storage in order to cope with the large amount of rapidly flowing data each second. As a result of this, we need more power algorithms for the security of this data. We want more and more abstraction between the digital interfaces to make our lives easier.
