What is Computer

Science?
Computing is part of everything we do. Computing drives innovation in engineering, business, entertainment, education, and the
sciences—and it provides solutions to complex, challenging problems of all kinds.

Computer science is the study of computers and computational systems. It is a broad field which includes everything from the
algorithms that make up software to how software interacts with hardware to how well software is developed and
designed. Computer scientists use various mathematical algorithms, coding procedures, and their expert programming skills to
study computer processes and develop new software and systems.

How is Computer Science Different from IT?


Computer science focuses on the development and testing of software and software systems. It involves working with mathematical
models, data analysis and security, algorithms, and computational theory. Computer scientists define the computational principles
that are the basis of all software.
Information technology (IT) focuses on the development, implementation, support, and management of computers and
information systems. IT involves working both with hardware (CPUs, RAM, hard disks) and software (operating systems, web
browsers, mobile applications). IT professionals make sure that computers, networks, and systems work well for all users.

What Careers does Computer Science Offer?


Computing jobs are among the highest paid today, and computer science professionals report high job satisfaction. Most computer
scientists hold at least a bachelor's degree in computer science or a related field.

Principal areas of study and careers 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 theory of computing.
