In many of my cases, I’ve been able to hire an intern that has had some previous experience with the same thing: programming. I was recently able to hire a computer science graduate from MIT to help me with my project. He’s been working with me for a few weeks and he’s really been a great help.
I think one of the most important skills to develop as a software engineer is coding, the art of making computer programs, and then implementing those programs in a way that makes them useful. Thats what Ive been doing, and I think its been a great experience for me.
I think programming is one of the least important skills in computer science but a necessary skill nonetheless. For the past few years Ive been working on a project called “Vacuum,” a new game in which you are tasked with the task of finding a vacuum that will create a “vacuum world” – a world where the laws of physics are the same in all directions. Ive been working on it for about a year and a half and its really been a great experience.
Vacuum is the game that has probably been the most difficult for me to get interested in (and therefore get hired for) though. The whole game is a lot of work and the way it implements the game mechanics is way to difficult. But, overall, after going through the coding process, I think that in the end its really a great game and I can’t recommend it enough.
If you want to be a computer scientist, I think you should consider doing a PhD. The job’s so much more interesting than it seems.
A PhD is basically a PhD in computer science. In the past, a computer scientist would start with a PhD in electrical engineering, then move on to a PhD in electrical or computer engineering. Today’s PhDs are much more in demand and are in demand because of the demand for computer science and the demand for computer science jobs.
Computer science is a field that, as a whole, is growing very quickly. According to the US Bureau of Labor Statistics, the computer science field grew by 9.3% in the year 2010 alone. If you look at the computer science job growth in the same year, it is also growing substantially. The number of CS jobs in the US has been growing steadily for the past few years.
Computer science graduate jobs are extremely common in the US, especially with the rapid growth of programming in general. The job title is a bit misleading. A PhD is a degree that shows the student’s ability to solve complex mathematical problems. The title does not imply the complexity of the problems. This is particularly true for research-level problems.
The number of computer science grad school programs in the US is growing at a rapid clip. The number of CS program graduates has been growing steadily for the past few years. So why has it grown so much faster than the other fields? CS grad programs have also been growing steadily at a rapid clip for the past few years.
