What Is a Computer Science Degree?

The passion for technology can lead you to choose the specialisation of Computer Science. This field has become increasingly popular in recent years, the development being so rapid that people are trying to keep up with it.

A Computer Science degree deals with the theoretical and practical foundations of information technology and computers. The scientific part merges with the practical one in various algorithms, information processing or in computational models. This specialisation often aims to study methodological processes, making representations on a computer, storage, or accessing information.

At the same time, the study of Computer Science focuses on the learning of programming languages, which are extremely important for any student. Python, C ++, Java are just a few of the programming languages ​​that are explored in depth by students in order to solve the applications received from the faculty. Furthermore, on the labour market, programming languages ​​are highly appreciated and integrated, being a useful tool for optimal performance of industries.

Benefits of a Computer Science Degree

The most important skill that young people learn following this degree is the use of programming languages. Once they grasp the logic of programming, they will easily be able to master the languages ​​and build or develop WEB applications. Additional skills that are acquired can be: network design and engineering, software engineering, multimedia design. In addition, classical skills such as teamwork, leadership, problem-solving or time management are also gained by students.

According to recent studies, 6 of the 10 best jobs chosen by graduates are linked to Computer Science. These include Web Design, Computer Support Specialist, IT Operations Technician or Database Administrator. Moreover, the employment rate is favourable to the students, being over 70%. Due to the rapid advancement of technology, it is expected that the supply will grow in the future, requiring computer science specialists in any field.

Computer Science Degree Structure

To study Computer Science, students can either pursue university courses or follow courses online, depending on their availability and income. Online or outside-university courses include disciplines such as: Information Systems Management, Game Programming, Web Development, Network Fundamentals. They usually have a duration of 2 years. Although these courses provide important skills in this specialisation, students may be disadvantaged when competing with a student who has a Bachelor’s Degree. Some of the most important campuses in the world include Penn State World Campus, University of Massachusetts, Lowell (The Division of Online Learning and Continuing Education), Saint Leo University.

The Bachelor in Computer Science lasts around 3 to 4 years, depending on the university. Throughout the programme, students acquire mathematical knowledge, theoretical and practical foundation in programming. Some of the subjects discussed are: Computer Programming, Data Structures, Databases, Algorithms, Linear Algebra, Probability Theory or Statistics. These vary according to the curriculum of the university. 

A Master’s program complete the students’ necessary career skills. In this way, they have a greater understanding of computing softwares, tools, packages, and computer architecture. 

There are Master programs that can be followed even by those who have not undertaken undergraduate studies in Computer Science, such as those offered at the University of Birmingham for example. These programs can take either 2 to 5 years. 

A PhD program is especially dedicated to those who want to research or become university professors and can last between 4 to 5 years.

    Review

    I like it that it gives us a lot of free time to work and do something else besides going to classes, but I think the teachers here could be more interested in teaching us, showing us new techniques, not the ones used years ago and inspire us.
    Also, it would be more useful if we were doing things that are closer to our reality, more practical.

    Great

    I am happy to come to classes and learn things to help me in the day to day. I think it was the best choice to come to this university.

    I recommend the university with confidence to all those who want to learn economic cybernetics, as employment opportunities extend over an extended range of fields.

    ASE opinions

    For the last 2 years while I studied in ASE I had some pretty interesting experiences.
    The professors are 100% competent and involved in anything to do with university activities.
    The students’ syndicate is very active and always has great projects for the students.

    The location is great, also.

    good, but not exactly what i expected

    I studied Economic Cybernetics, Statistics and Informatics and I can say that these three years have helped me improve my programming skills, I learned a lot about the statistics area, the ability to process data and access databases in economical contexts. To sum up, in my opinion, it is a good faculty if you like both economics and also have programming skills, but what I dislike is the large amount of theory instead of practice, the unprofessional behaviour of some professors and the fact that maybe more than 50% of what you learn here, you won’t use later in your career.

    As a final year student, I can strongly say now that this university helped me a lot. The subjects we have are very useful and they allow you to find a job very fast. You also have opportunities to be an NGO volunteer and to do extracurricular activities.

    Too much theory

    It is a good university with many specializations. I would love to have more practice because the theoretical aspects are highlighted too much. After graduating, it would help us more. I would also like to use new, systematized methods, new software programs, because life is highly technologicalized.

    In principle, the faculty where I study ( Cybernetics ) is one of the best faculty in the country, but it has however things to improve.

    I study at the Faculty of Cybernetics, Statistics and Economic Informatics and I think this is the perfect place if you like programming, and moreover, if you like to analyze and forecast, this is the best choice. Indeed, it is too much theory, but you have a lot of time, time when you can engage in other things.
