Why Computer Science?
You're considering pursuing a college degree ... possibly a degree in Computer Science ... possibly a degree in Computer Science at the University of Colorado Boulder. Pursuing a college degree, whether undergraduate or graduate, in any field at any university involves a considerable amount of time, effort and usually money. So it's certainly a good idea to choose a discipline and degree program carefully. While many people are at least somewhat familiar with computers (usually a personal computer), most people don't have a very good understanding of what the discipline of "computer science" is really all about. Similarly, while many people have "heard something" about the job market for computer scientists, most are really unaware that the current and projected outlook for computer science job opportunities is quite good. Finally, while many people may have some vague idea of the computer science degree programs offered at the University of Colorado Boulder, most would not really have a real understanding of them until they actually investigated these offerings. Understanding these first two aspects of computer science the CU Engineering Center discipline and the job market are very important when considering a computer science degree at any university. The third aspect the nature of the computer science degree programs available at the University of Colorado Boulder is certainly important if considering a computer science degree at CU. We'd like to provide a little information on these three issues to help you in making an informed decision.

Computer Science ... The Discipline
So what is computer science? There are a number of definitions of computer science. Here's a simple one: com.put.er sci.ence n : The study of computer technology, both hardware and software. Well ... that sure sounds kind of broad ... computer science is the study of almost anything to do with computer technology! That's right, but how about some concrete examples? Fortunately, there are many, many subareas within the broader discipline of computer science, and new areas are continuously being created as the discipline advances. Let's look at just a few of these subareas of computer science: Software Systems Programming Languages Operating Systems Databases Networking Distributed Computing Software Engineering Game Development Mobile Computing Parallel Programming Computer Graphics Data Structures Compilers Telecommunication Information Systems Artificial Intelligence HumanComputer Interaction

Natural Language Processing Image Processing Computer Aided Engineering That's quite a few subareas ... and we haven't really even listed all of them. Also, each of these subareas of computer science is actually a huge discipline in its own right. Computer science has certainly become a core discipline a discipline of study in itself and one that continues to grow. However, a rather unique aspect of computer science is that it's not only a very broad discipline, but that it has exceptionally broad application to nearly every other discipline imaginable: Medicine medical imaging patient monitoring record keeping surgery diagnostics pharmaceuticals prosthetics remote care nanotechnology Art digital art virtual reality photography Biology genomic research genetic engineering Aviation aircraft design flight control air traffic control baggage tracking

OK ... you get the picture. These are just a very few of the disciplines to which computer science may be readily applied. And it's very easy to find many, many more. In fact, the more difficult task is to find a discipline to which computer science can't be (and isn't being) readily applied. (If you think of one, please let us know!) As you can see, our lives are touched almost continuously by computers (and therefore by computer scientists!) every day in a huge variety of ways.

It's clear that computer science is a huge discipline with extremely broad application. But what about the job market for computer science graduates? A degree isn't terribly useful unless it's possible to use that degree to launch a career. The general public often perceives the job market for computer scientists as rather bleak indeed. Certainly, there was a huge downturn in the market several years ago; however, there has been steady and considerable improvement since that time, to the point that shortages of qualified computer scientists are projected over the coming decade. Here are a few interesting items related to the computer science job market: Money Magazine recently published "Best Jobs in America". Leading the list ... "Software engineer".

The Association for Computing Machinery has produced an excellent brochure called Computing Degrees & Careers: Today's High-Tech Growth Is Tomorrow's High-Tech Boom!: The need for computing professionals and executives right here in the U.S. is growing as companies become more global. Almost every major challenge facing our world is turning to computing for a solution, from conquering disease to eliminating hunger, from improving education to protecting the environment ... Want in? A college degree in a computing major will make it happen. Although you typically don't need prior training in computing, your high school may have classes that can help you get a head start. Talk with your guidance counselor and your school's computer science teachers to learn more about the opportunities available to you now and in the future, or visit our Computing Degrees & Careers website.

Trend analysts attribute the decline to the widespread perception that the tech industry has become unprofitable. Department of Labor statistics project employment in the information technology industry to grow at an annual rate double that of overall job growth. Computing is pervasive ... there is a growing and persistent need for people with information technology skills. A considerable shortage of new graduates to fill these jobs is predicted. Local companies are hiring, particularly people with backgrounds in computer science combined with expertise in other fields. CU's Computer Science Department has revised its program to allow more interdisciplinary study. In the article former Department Chair Elizabeth Bradley says, "fewer students both locally and nationally are pursuing computer science majors because of misguided fears about the technology industry, even though projections show increased hiring in the sector in years to come." In another article, Not adding up: Schools faced with an enrollment drop in computer-science students, the Daily Camera describes how enrollment in Computer Science is dropping, while demand for graduates is increasing. The article also includes photographs from the CU Computer Science class "Things That Think". In CU student gets his 'dream' job: Engineering graduate will start at DreamWork s next month, the Daily Camera describes how Computer Science major Jacob Melvin "customized" his degree program and landed the perfect job. The Computer Science Department maintains a Computer Science Jobs Mailing List, to which anyone who wants to receive jobrelated postings may subscribe. As further anecdotal evidence of the improving job market for computer science graduates, it's interesting to look at the average number of postings per month to the jobs list over the past several years. The number of postings has increased from a very minimal 1 posting/week in 2002 to on the order of 1 posting/day over the last 5 years.

has basic computer science skills and we think is highly talented. When I sit down and review projects here inside the company, the topic that always comes up is how is the hiring going, we've got open headcount, these are super wellpaying jobs ... Some people say, well, doesn't this mean there will just be a shift to Asia of a lot of this activity, and there will be some, but you take a company like ours, we're going to always have the vast majority of our development taking place in this location. We like to do things in a unified way, and so even though India and China are going to grow quite a bit, it's a big problem for us that we can't get these great students. We have this interesting paradox where in China and India we can get lots of engineers but getting people who have sort of what we call program management type skills or general management type skills, it's very hard to find enough of those, whereas here in the United States we do pretty well at getting people with those skill sets, but then it's just the engineering we're very short of what we'd like to get. And so the competition for somebody who's got the right background is just phenomenal. All of the issues around natural interface, you know, vision, speech, ink, modeling, those are areas where the economic value of getting those things right, whether it's Microsoft or anybody else, it's the next ten years that it's interesting. I think if I'd written down in the late '60s, early '70s the interesting problems in computer science, if anybody had, that we could say that a small percentage have been solved right now, but that a very high percentage will be solved in these next 10 to 15 years. ... the nature of these jobs is not just closing your door and doing coding ... in fact, the greatest missing skill is somebody who's both good at understanding the engineering and has good relationships with the hardcore engineers, and bridges that to working with the customers and the marketing and things like that. And so that sort of engineering management career track, even amongst all the people we have, we still fall short of finding people who want to do that ... And so I'd love to have people who come to these jobs wanting to think of it as a lot and exercise in people management and people dynamics, as well as the basic engineering skills. That would be absolutely amazing. And we can

Trend analysts attribute the decline to the widespread perception that the tech industry has become unprofitable. Department of Labor statistics project employment in the information technology industry to grow at an annual rate double that of overall job growth. Computing is pervasive ... there is a growing and persistent need for people with information technology skills. A considerable shortage of new graduates to fill these jobs is predicted. Local companies are hiring, particularly people with backgrounds in computer science combined with expertise in other fields. CU's Computer Science Department has revised its program to allow more interdisciplinary study. In the article former Department Chair Elizabeth Bradley says, "fewer students both locally and nationally are pursuing computer science majors because of misguided fears about the technology industry, even though projections show increased hiring in the sector in years to come." In another article, Not adding up: Schools faced with an enrollment drop in computer-science students, the Daily Camera describes how enrollment in Computer Science is dropping, while demand for graduates is increasing. The article also includes photographs from the CU Computer Science class "Things That Think". In CU student gets his 'dream' job: Engineering graduate will start at DreamWork s next month, the Daily Camera describes how Computer Science major Jacob Melvin "customized" his degree program and landed the perfect job. The Computer Science Department maintains a Computer Science Jobs Mailing List, to which anyone who wants to receive jobrelated postings may subscribe. As further anecdotal evidence of the improving job market for computer science graduates, it's interesting to look at the average number of postings per month to the jobs list over the past several years. The number of postings has increased from a very minimal 1 posting/week in 2002 to on the order of 1 posting/day over the last 5 years.

has basic computer science skills and we think is highly talented. When I sit down and review projects here inside the company, the topic that always comes up is how is the hiring going, we've got open headcount, these are super wellpaying jobs ... Some people say, well, doesn't this mean there will just be a shift to Asia of a lot of this activity, and there will be some, but you take a company like ours, we're going to always have the vast majority of our development taking place in this location. We like to do things in a unified way, and so even though India and China are going to grow quite a bit, it's a big problem for us that we can't get these great students. We have this interesting paradox where in China and India we can get lots of engineers but getting people who have sort of what we call program management type skills or general management type skills, it's very hard to find enough of those, whereas here in the United States we do pretty well at getting people with those skill sets, but then it's just the engineering we're very short of what we'd like to get. And so the competition for somebody who's got the right background is just phenomenal. All of the issues around natural interface, you know, vision, speech, ink, modeling, those are areas where the economic value of getting those things right, whether it's Microsoft or anybody else, it's the next ten years that it's interesting. I think if I'd written down in the late '60s, early '70s the interesting problems in computer science, if anybody had, that we could say that a small percentage have been solved right now, but that a very high percentage will be solved in these next 10 to 15 years. ... the nature of these jobs is not just closing your door and doing coding ... in fact, the greatest missing skill is somebody who's both good at understanding the engineering and has good relationships with the hardcore engineers, and bridges that to working with the customers and the marketing and things like that. And so that sort of engineering management career track, even amongst all the people we have, we still fall short of finding people who want to do that ... And so I'd love to have people who come to these jobs wanting to think of it as a lot and exercise in people management and people dynamics, as well as the basic engineering skills. That would be absolutely amazing. And we can

The outlook for computer science jobs in the coming years is quite good. This is obviously promising from the standpoint of simply finding a job. But the nature of computer science is that there are a huge variety of jobs in the discipline jobs addressing a huge variety of problems, jobs performing a huge variety of types of work, jobs with a huge variety of companies, and jobs in a huge variety of geographic locations. This provides tremendous opportunity for graduates not only to find a job, but to find the right job for them: a job addressing interesting problems, a job performing appropriate types of work, a job with a wellmatched company, and a job in a desirable geographic location.
