Have you ever wondered who are the master minds behind all the technology released lately? Ever wondered how in the world did someone come out with the capability of someone watching 3d television and video chatting on smart phones? If you are interested in the blue prints and composition behind it like me you might be interested in becoming a computer science engineer.
The life of a Computer Science Engineer is something very adventurous and truly insightful,in my opinion. There are two different categories that a computer science engineer can be employed in: academic and no academic. Academic scientist are generally the ones that focus mostly on pure theory and have more time to research and produce. No academic scientists are the ones I have chosen to focus on. I enjoy deadlines and to challenge my true abilities.They conduct research in many different sectors. They have the choice from examining computer architecture ,virtual reality, and robotics.All the technology that we operate these days are hard and straneous hours of production dedicated by computer science egineers. Have you ever wondered and pondered on how much more we have been able to reach out and connect with family members,friends,and employers thousands of miles away without even being physically present?? Computer Science is where everything starts from. The social networking market is one of the most popular industries,and virtually almost everyone has a Facebook, Myspace, or Twitter account now. From the popular gaming consoles released lately,including the Xbox 360, Playstation 3, and the Nintendo Wii are more great examples of how much work and progress computer science engineers have committed and sacrificed to our ever growing world.
The average starting yearly salary with a master's degree in Computer Science and Engineering is estimated to be almost sixty two thousand dollars; while a Ph.d. is estimated at fifty seven thousand.It is also projected that the job openings will increase by 32 percent from 2008 to 2018.From that enticing figure, there is also high expectations and productivity at a fast pace. The typical work setting for computer scientists are in offices or laboratories.Most computer engineers work 40 hour work weeks, while only about 15 percent work for then 50 hour work weeks. For the ones that work 50 hours plus have to do that only because of deadlines they have to meet for a certain software or product to be released to the public.For people that like to travel there are job oppurtunities literally all over the world. Jobs can range from Hawaii to Singapore. Google, Apple, and Bing are three of the most popular and beneficiall employers to date. Google's success ranging from their search engine to there mobile and computer operating systems have drastically increased and are now on the brink of passing even apple's earnings!
Do you want to be the next big inventor?? Maybe become the first to create a gaming console that can turn off all the lights in your home and automatically start your vehicle(s)?? If you answered yes to this question, the world is at your fingertips and becoming a Computer Science Engineer would definately be the right choice for you!
