Computer Science Degree
Bachelor of Computer Science
Bachelor of Computer Science (abbreviated B.CompSc.
or B.CS.) is a type bachelor's degree, usually awarded after four years
of collegiate study in computer science. The same core curriculum may,
depending on the school, result in other degrees, including:
- Bachelor of Arts in Computer Science
- Bachelor of Mathematics in Computer Science
- Bachelor of Science in Computer Science
- Bachelor of Engineering in Computer Science
Typical Degree Requirements
Since
Computer Science is such a wide field, required Computer Science
Degree courses varies. Here is a typical list of standard courses
with most Computer Science Degree requires.
- Programming Principles
- Algorithms
- Data Structures
- Logic and Computation
Some schools which place more emphasis on
Mathematics will have more required mathematics courses such as:
- Linear Algebra
- Calculus
- Statistics
- Combinatorics, Discrete Mathematics
Beyond the basic set of Computer Science courses,
typically students can choose courses from a large variety of
different fields, such as:
- Theory of computation
- Operating Systems
- Numerical computation
- Computer architecture
- Compilers
- Software Engineering
- Databases
- Real-time computing

Information Technology (IT) is concerned with
the use of technology in managing and processing information,
especially in large organizations.
In particular, IT deals with the use of electronic computers and
computer software to convert, store, protect, process, transmit,
and retrieve information. For that reason, computer professionals
are often called IT specialists or Business Process Consultants,
and the division of a company or university that deals with
software technology is often called the IT department. Other names
for the latter are information services (IS) or management information
services (MIS), managed service providers (MSP).
In the United Kingdom education system, information technology was
formally integrated into the school curriculum when the National
Curriculum was devised. It was quickly realised that the work
covered was useful in all subjects. With the arrival of the
Internet and the broadband connections to all schools, the
application of IT knowledge, skills and understanding in all
subjects became a reality. This change in emphasis has resulted
in a change of name from Information Technology to Information
and Communication Technology (ICT). ICT in Education can be
understood as the application of digital equipment to all aspects
of teaching and learning. It is present in almost all schools
and is of growing influence.
The growth of use of Information and Communications Technology
and its tools in the field of Education has seen tremendous growth
in the recent past. Technology has entered the classroom in a big
way to become part of the teaching and learning process.
