What is computer science?
Computer Science is the study of how to design, build, and use computers and computer systems.
Such topics as:
Hardware
Software
Programing
Networks
Graphics
Database
Security
Algorithmic Solutions
Information Processing
Hardware:
Computer hardware is the physical components of a computer system, including the outer casing, screen,
keyboard, mouse, and internal parts.
Software:
Computer software (or simply "software") is a set of instructions that tells a computer what to do. It
includes applications, operating systems, and other programs that help a computer perform tasks.
Programing:
Writing instructions that a computer can understand and follow to perform a specific task.
Networks:
A computer network is a group of computers linked together to share things like internet access,
printers, and files.
There is the table that’s show the job opportunities in Pakistan in computer science field.
Graphics:
Using computers to create and edit images, like photos, videos, and video games.
Robots
A robot is a machine that can be programmed to perform a series of tasks on its own, either by a computer
or by a built-in control system.
Database
A database is a collection of organized information that a computer can easily search and retrieve. It's like a
digital filing system that allows you to store, find, and update information quickly and efficiently.
Security
Security measures protect computer systems and their parts from unauthorized access, harm, or
disruption, keeping them safe and available.
Algorithmic Solutions
An algorithm is a set of instructions designed to perform a specific task.
Information Processing
Information processing is when computers and other digital devices handle and transform data. This
includes things like business software, operating systems, computers, networks, and mainframes.
Now we are talking about:
Telecom
Banks
Hospitals
Software Development
Service Industry
Pak Army
Freelancing etc.
In Pakistan, most job openings are in Computer Science. When searching by job function or industry, Computer
Science has the most job opportunities, surpassing other fields.
International Job Market
Computer Science jobs are very popular worldwide. A well-known magazine, Forbes, says that Software
Developer is the best job in the US. They also ranked other areas in Computer Science as very desirable,
including:
