I’m currently working on an Information Technology (IT) department as the admin for the network. I have acquired my Master’s Degree in Engineering System Management. But still. I would want to pursue my degree in Computer Science. I would like to finish the said degree because of various reasons. First, I really have good skills in programming, and in developing software and hardware. The field of computer science optimize the use of computers in solving real world problems. These utilizes the designing of computer programs – which are known as software – as well as the development of the hardware. The degree is not just about programming. In this degree, the architecture of the computers on how they are built are explored. Also, I am so interested in learning the concepts behind each software such as that of databases and operating systems. I also believe that algorithms can be utilized and design to solve problems. Computer science also can cover interesting topics such as robotics, artificial intelligence, bioinformatics, and multimedia – things that interest me. I used to teach computer since high school so I would like to increase my knowledge about computers in such way that I can impart to others this knowledge at the same time, I can develop my own interests on computers. Computer Science has been an interesting degree to me since it involves a lot of programming. When I master programming, I get to be interested with broader systems of software. The field of computer science can explore a wide range of means of solving world problems. Another reason that inspires me to pursue my degree in computer science is the countless opportunities that awaits me in the industry. The said degree has been an in-demand course globally ... ... middle of paper ... ... of the field is the development of applications in mobile phones. Applications such as “Two-fuse”, “Angry Bird”, “Temple Run”, and “Candy Crush” are developed mostly by computer scientists. I am so much interested in exploring these applications through efficient programming. I feel that it is so fulfilling to accomplish such applications. I would also want to develop or create software out of my own mind. There has been these “joy of creation” to the computer science field. These “creation” can also accompany revenue. When one developed an in demand application or software, it can be released to the market of great value. So there’s a lot of potential money in programming. I am abundantly interested on computers and through computer science, I know that I will learn more about it and I would be able to contribute to the continuously adapting computer technology.

I am applying for the course of Computer Science because I would like to increase my knowledge of this subject. I hope that in the future I will be able to create applications for computers that will help people to save time and money.
When I started my college career, I had an idea in mind. It was “I want a computer science degree!”, and I have to say, after this first term, that thought has not changed. I mean, not enough time has passed to consider changing major at this point. According to Clifton, Anderson & Schreiner (2006) “anywhere from 60 to 85% of entering college students change their major at least one” (p. 236). I hope not to be part of this statistic. I hope to continue on through with the major that I have chosen.
An interview with Dr. Louis, a computer science and engineering professor with a Ph. D. who is currently teaching while researching at the University of Nevada, Reno, answered a few questions that a computer science major or other under graduated students might be interested in. When Dr. Louis was in college, his goal was to become a software engineer, a major that sparked his interest. Dr. Louis said “Computers are driving all kind of technologies” (interview), like airplanes, Global Positioning System, Unmanned aerial vehicles, motor engines, even including itself. “A person that acquired a computer science degree can do just about anything” (interview), work in any industry because every industry today use computers one way or the other. Also “this major is very international” (interview), a person can stay home while working for companies across seas. Not only that “this major is exceedingly universal” (interview), people who studies computer science are also have higher chance in getting a field related job ‘fresh out of college’ compares to other majors. Of course, every major come with a few downsides, “disadvantages for this major are that not only comes with a lot of work but also in the real
A computer science major is a very difficult major if you have no passion or dive for it, and even when you do you can still have troubles. I have a great interest in this career and I made sure that this is something that I want to pursue. I am going to make sure that work for my computer science classes comes first and get help when I need it to make me successful. Also, as stated before, there is a great amount of completion for entry level positions. If anyone wants to get into this field, then they have to make sure that they make themselves stand out from the rest. I plan on making a website that has links to all of the projects that I have worked on so whoever is hiring can see examples of what I can

I've always been fascinated by research, especially work that benefits common people or the environment. The idea that my efforts may better someone's life or help create a greener planet motivates me. So after a successful career in IT, I intend to pursue my MS in Computer Science at University of Pennsylvania in order to build my research skills and work towards my interests in Computer Visualization, Data Mining, and Software Engineering.
My first experience with Computer Science had to be back in 10th grade when I wanted to learn how to code Java and make neat programs on my own. This was a year before I took AP Computer Science in high school and I didn’t want to wait a whole year to learn how to code, so I followed tutorials I found online and pieced together some knowledge of Java that helped me greatly going into the class. What was so important about learning about Java on my own was that it kept me intrigued on what Computer Science was and kept me dead set on that being my major going into Florida State University. Since then I have continued to develop coding skills and an interest for Computer Science through watching Harvard CS courses online, messing with a Raspberry Pi and traveling to Detroit with TechNole and attending a hackathon called MHacks. Most recently I have been trying to learn how to develop Android apps. These things continue to drive me to learn and try new things related to Computer Science and expose myself more to the field.
