My major is Computer Systems Technology (IT Operations track). I’ve been interested in computer science for as far as I can remember. I’ve always been fascinated and enjoyed using, troubleshooting, and building computers, configuring systems, and learning how they work and I can consider it one of, if not, my first love. I am a big sports fan and support most of the NYC teams (Yankees, Knicks, Rangers, NYCFC, among others) as well as an avid gamer.

After I graduate I am hoping to obtain an entry-level position doing System Administration, most likely in a Windows (Active Directory/SCCM)/VMware environment. Long-term, I would probably like to be a senior SysAdmin for a company I love. I also want to travel and visit a lot of the continental US. I hope to gain a new way of thinking and understanding elementary coding and programming.

• Your major- my major is CST(Computer Systems Technology) and I am heading towards Networking Security.
• How you got interested in math/computer science- I got interested in my major because I was so good at it from a very young age.  Plus its a growing field.
• What you hope to do after you graduate from CityTech; short-term goals, long-term goals, whatever…- when I graduate CityTech I would like to go for my masters. I would also love to buy an M5 and a Range Rover SV autobiography.
• What you hope to get out of this course (I don’t mean which grade you want!)- I guess the general idea for gaining knowledge in this course would be abstract my mind even more by understanding the concept of this course.
• Other interests/hobbies you have- I have a lot of hobbies like;  I go to the gym, I listen to classical music, I read books here and there, and I make/smoke shisha with my friends.

• Major : (CST)Computer System Technology 
• How you got interested in math/computer science : I became interested when i built a computer with my uncle over 10 years ago!
• What you hope to do after you graduate from CityTech; short-term goals, long-term goals, whatever… : I hope to become an IT tech 
• What you hope to get out of this course (I don’t mean which grade you want! : I hope to get a basic understanding of the course and hope it applies to my major.
• Other interests/hobbies you have : Interests would include Cars, repairing, building, racing etc.

My name is Kenny Pang and my major is Applied Math. I got interested in math because I find it quite easy. I always get high grades in math classes without having to study much. I currently don’t have any goals after graduation. Maybe I will find a job and work for a couple of years then I may decide to do something else. What I hope to get out of this course is the programming knowledge which may help me in the future. Some of my hobbies are playing video games and watching movies.

Yea…My name is Christ-Brian Amedjonekou but you can refer to me with just “Chris”. It’ll be easier for all of us.

What’s my major?

Well I just recently transferred to the school. Last semester was my first semester here. At my other schools I was a computer science major with a minor in math. But currently I’m just an Applied Math major with a concentration in information sciences.

How did I get into math/computers?

Honestly, it was because of movies and anime. Live Free Die Hard was one of them and Ghost in the Shell is the other. But they’re really just some of the media involving technology that I like. Cyber Punk is one of my favorite genres. I’ve always messed with computers and somehow have been good at math although I didn’t realize that I liked it till recently. They’re really the only academic subjects that can keep engaged and interested but like all things, it depends, so don’t hold me to it. But for the most part it’s true. I like how resourceful you can be when you have prerequisite knowledge of processes and how they work.

What am I gonna do when I leave City Tech?

I’m trying to figure that right now actually. Long term? The idea is that I’ll do research in A.I. development, Robotics, and most likely security. Thank Ghost in the Shell for that. But I don’t really want to do it for an organization or company really. I rather have an environment similar to DefCon, a collective of some sort. But maybe they’re funded by major companies? I don’t really know. I guess I’ll have to figure that out. Bottom line I’m looking to be independent mostly collaborating with other people and groups but not super large companies. Short term? Trying to figure out how to make the long term possible.

What I hope to get out of this course? (You don’t mean which grade I want!)

An “A”, seriously <insert emoji>. Can I use emojis? Anyways from what I understand Discrete Mathematics focuses on the building blocks and processes that make maths like algebra, and I guess Calculus and Geometry, work. I equate it to how assembly acts as the middle man between higher programming languages and machine code. But maybe I’m wrong. Either way I’m interested in seeing how this study of discrete math relates to other topics I’m interested in, and the world in general. I already can see with logic that it fits in with computers, electronics, probability.

Other interests/hobbies I have?

My hobbies include working out, playing tennis, basketball, learning how to skateboard and play bass. I hear that people who are good at math are also good with music, so I want to give it a try. Plus I’d like to live out my delusions of being a sick bassist in a band. I also like getting tattoos and piercings, and I game sometimes but only when I’m bored and not doing the other things. OH, and I like to make and sell glass bongs. Works of art really. (That last part’s a joke.)

side note: This last part sounds like one of those weird dating profiles you see in the commercials. Regardless nice to meet you all and I want to wish everybody luck during the semester. Peace.

My name is Cheung Ka Yat. My major is Computer System Technology. Computer is a very useful tools that we all use it everyday for work or entertainment. Just with your finger tips, you can get what you are looking for. I am interested in this major because I want to know more about network, and how it works. I hope I can get a certification form Cisco or Microsoft, also get a networking job to gain experience in this field after I graduate form City Tech. In this class I want to learn more knowledge of algorithms.

Hello, I am Jiayu Zhen. My major is Computer Systems Technology. When i was 6 years old, my dad bought me the first computer . That was  pretty awesome that you can see a new world on the screen. I was attracted by the computer at that time. I feel I can’t live without computer in this information era. So, I got interested in computer science major. As the most college students want, I hope I can be hired in a good company after I graduate from City Tech. In this class, I want to learn more about logical thinking and algorithms, in order to  make the process of programming easier.  I love sports,  I enjoy playing computer and I like music and history.
