ENG 1101

Success requires hard work and knowledge, City Tech is the perfect place to seek knowledge. My name is Shah Raiz Khan and I am a student of Computer Science at City Tech, City Tech only have associates degree in my major due to that I will have to get transfer to City College for further studies after completing my associates from City Tech. Once you learn about computer science you will find a different world full of excitement and unlimited knowledge. This is the best career for me because my problem solving skills got better after choosing this career. I have been around the computers since I was a kid and now I feel it like a part of my body and I know when something goes wrong with it and this ability will help me as a computer system analyst. There is no limit for knowledge in this field, so far I have learnt three computer languages which are “C, C++, Java”, C++ and java are the most common languages used in today’s programming world. Our whole future depends on computers as we see from Planes to small corner street cameras all work on computer and you need someone to program it for you.

Technology have made human life so easy that we even do not pay attention to the stuff that is happening behind the program, and how is everything working, but a computer science student knows “The language of mathematics is used to translate the solutions of real-world problems into algorithms. Constructing efficient and effective algorithms to solve a particular problem is the business of computer science”,(City tech catalog). Computer science is an excellent field of study for those seeking career opportunities in the worlds of business, education, government and industry. Employers value computer science graduates, not just for their specific technical skills, but for the broad analytic and problem-solving abilities that are developed in the study of computer science. After completing my degree in Computer Science I will be able to get jobs in fields like Information Security Analyst, Software Developer, Computer Programmer, Computer Systems Analyst, Computer and Information Systems Manager and many other fields. At the moment when I am studying at City Tech I want to gather as much knowledge as possible, I want to learn all the skills of the professors either it is about the stuff that they teaches us or just personal behavior that he developed over time with his experiences, I want to learn about all and use it as necessary.

The best tool to be successful in any field is to “become a problem solver” (Professor Jason W. Ellis). Computer Science is the best career for me because it keeps me busy with different issues which comes up on testing new programs, I never feels tired by this process because this is what I always liked due to its power to communicate, today we are working on to built a cap that can get access to the computer by using our brain without any use of keyboard or mouse we can use computers by sending signals through neurons in our brain (Corinna Lathan). Computer science is the field for people who like discoveries and believe in their selves and always look forward to do new invasions in modern technology.

Science have always shown a new way to human life but when it comes to Computer Science, It has changed the way of our thinking and the World as well , Without computing, the Allies may not have won the World War two, humans would not have walked on Moon, and Wal-mart would be a small store in Arkansas (David Evans). All this stuff was possible due to Computer science inventions. I spend most of my life around computers one the things that I learnt from it is the more time you spend with it the more knowledge you obtain from it. If you can understand the computer science here is no place in the world that you can stay behind from others. Two years ago I was free in my house and I had nothing to do so I decided to built an application for computer to keep the record of all the things that I do in my day, It took me over 2 months to built it and fix all the errors that I was facing while using it and finally I found someone who wanted to buy that and sold him for 12 thousand dollars on the condition that I will not use my name on it, I did not thought for a second and sold him, that day I realize If you have some knowledge of computer science you will never loose in this world.

Modern technology is changing the way our brain works, the human brain the most sensitive part of our body can now control things just by thinking about them in our mind. It all became reality due to computer science, an electronic chip is being developed that could allow a paralyzed patient to move a robotic limb just by thinking about it (Professor Susan Greenfield). Every field needs people in Computer science to keep up with the world and to maintain the record and provide them cyber security which is the main threat to any company for example few years ago a group of hacker hacked into the world biggest and security agencies and uploaded their top secret information on a website named wiki leaks founded by     Julian Assange (Julian Assange).

Computer Science gives you the opportunities to fulfill everything that you have dreamed of in your life, they have the best jobs in the world which keeps you active and entertain even at work. With a bachelor degree in Computer science you can get jobs in fields like Computer analyst, Data base administrator, Cyber security analyst, Web developer, Computer and system manager, Software developer and even as a Computer and information system manager (BLS). You can easily make from 70,000 To 120,000 per year depending on the company that you work in.

My studies at City Tech are preparing me to be ready for the outside world without any problems and to focus on what I have to do in my field of work. City Tech offer numerous internships and work facilities that gives you a look of work world and teaches you how to communicate with other people and to have a professional conversation with the people at your work place that all gives you confidence to go out and face the world without any hesitation.

I would recommend everyone to choose Computer science as your career if you have the problem solving skill and you know you can make change. If you like gaming with computer science you can create your own game or you can be the person in IT who protects the whole industry single handedly. If you are student at City Tech, you have the best chance to study Computer science from the best professors in this field and learn from them not just about your course about their lifestyle and way of talking this will help you to give positive impression to others.
