What is special about Computer Science?

Computer Science is one of the majors in the field of science and technology that many candidates have chosen to register for in recent years. So what is special about Computer Science?

Computer Science has a relatively high admission score threshold.

What is Computer Science?

Computer science is the most basic major in information technology related fields and is trained by most prestigious universities in the world .

Computer science is understood as a field of study that trains in software, programming and developing applications running on servers, computers (PCs, laptops and smart personal devices), using knowledge of software technology and information systems in general.

The training program of this major mainly provides mathematical knowledge for computer science, computer architecture and computer systems, algorithms, data organization and programming. Besides, it is also indispensable to have technological knowledge to deploy software development.

However, in addition to the software development orientation, Computer Science also has a theoretical orientation such as algorithm theory, optimization, and machine learning.

Therefore, after studying Computer Science, students can completely develop software, build and manage databases, develop integrated solutions to provide information systems suitable to users' needs, develop and optimize computational algorithms.

Job opportunities

In the list of 12 university-level training majors with high human resource demand announced by the Ministry of Education and Training in 2022, Computer Science - Information Technology appears.

In Vietnam, over the past 10 years, the demand for human resources in Computer Science and Information Technology has increased 4 times and shows no signs of stopping.

In addition, 98% of Computer Science engineers have jobs within a year of graduation with a common salary of around 10 - 15 million/month. Experienced experts can receive a salary of up to 162,000 USD (about 3.7 billion VND) per year, equivalent to 13,500 USD (about 312 million VND) per month.

In particular, high-quality Computer Science engineers oriented to the Japanese market have the opportunity to work in Japan with more competitive salaries.

The job positions of this major are also quite diverse, giving students many choices. You can absolutely work as a programmer in schools, institutes, software companies or work in telecommunications, banking, and IT centers of companies.

There are currently many universities training in Computer Science such as: Hanoi University of Science and Technology, Ho Chi Minh City University of Industry, University of Technology (Hanoi National University), Da Nang University of Technology, University of Information Technology (Ho Chi Minh City National University.
