Computing and Information Sciences

Description

Careers

Career possibilities in the computing sciences are as numerous and varied as the applications for which computers are used. Software engineering and related occupations are forecast to be one of the fastest-growing fields over the next decade. Job opportunities are available in traditional software development and in operational specialties in all areas of the economy: business, banking, communication, manufacturing, agriculture, entertainment, education and government.

Software is embedded everywhere: in the control systems of cars, airplanes and tractors, and even in implanted medical devices such as pacemakers. Software not only connects people and information through the Internet, it drives entertainment technology like video games, music and animation. It enables scientific research in areas such as developing new drugs to enhance medical care, enabling telemedicine to reach rural communities, implementing the virtual worlds of medical diagnosis and securing mobile and personal medical records.
