I graduted from an arabic country with a High diploma n computer science %26amp; planning to move to sweden. %26amp; i have british passport. what do i need to work there??
I have UK passport, a High Diploma n computer science. what do i need to work n Sweden?
Well if you are a citizen of UK then you are part of the European Union (as is Sweden) so you just need to register your move with the authorities. If you are not a citizen then you will need to get a job and apply for a work visa. I can tell you that there is demand for high level technical fields. One website you can start looking for a job on is www.monster.se Good Luck!

What areas of maths are required by Computer Science?
I'm beginning a course in Computer Science soon and have been advised to 'brush up on my mathematics'. From reading through some Computer Science textbooks I'm guessing that powers, algebra, standard index form, radixes and the binary and hexidecimal numbering systems will be handy to know about before I begin, but what other aspect of maths do you think would be useful to me or essential for the course? Cheers.
What areas of maths are required by Computer Science?
Computational Logic and logical related maths is going to be very important to you. Computational Algebra should cover that.
Obviously number systems are important for the degree but not for the actual work. Anyone who claims that you need to have a vast mathematical knowledge to succeed in computing is talking nonsense.
If you were to get into research and development and simulating real life experiences, then yes, a vast knowledge of maths is required.
If you are planning a career in IT (development, consulting, testing) then maths isn't the be-all and end-all.
Brush up on the following:
- Basical Algebra
- Propositional Calculus
- Basic Logic
- Computational Logic
- Number Systems
That should be a good start. Besides, any good computing science course should cover the mathematical concepts you need to succeed and shouldn't assume a prior knowledge.
Reply:I wish i could tell you m8 all i know is that is one tough subject to take on and i hope your serious and ready to commit your brain power to this course all the best too m8 by the way check out wkipedia or speak to a universty lecturer or a computer science student for more info :)
Reply:If you are going to be creating mathematical models for the real life problems, the mathematics required is vast. Else, number systems, like Binary, Octal, Hexadecimal, and basic numeric manipulation should suffice

What kind of pay can I expect once I get my computer science degree?
I'm graduating in about two years with a BS in computer science, what kind of pay can I expect right out of college?
What kind of pay can I expect once I get my computer science degree?
You'll probably get minimum wage with your own cubicle..

What career options are open to me if i get MINOR in applied physics or computer science?
I want to major in music(sound) technology, but I'm concerned I may not find a good job in my area. My only options for a minor is applied physics or computer science. What kind of careers can i find with only a minor one of these areas?
What career options are open to me if i get MINOR in applied physics or computer science?
If you pass your teaching credentials for those subjects you can teach. You can try your hand in IT work if you have enough CS background. Physics minors don't have much options. You really need a MS or PhD to do anything with physics besides being a teacher, lab tech, and your typical sales, retail, clerical work. You can also try to be a tech writer.

How much study is involved in a computer science degree?
Ho much actual at home study is involved in a computer science degree as I also work a full time job.
How much study is involved in a computer science degree?
I hope you love programming because they do a lot of programming and its really time consuming learning codes so hopefully your only taking like 12 units a semester or your really into this stuff or else you will have some difficulties.
Reply:If you want to do well, you'll have to study an average of 3-5+ hours for each course per week. Hours of study may vary with your aptitude for math...
Reply:There are a lot of factors:
1. How many classes are you taking?
2. How good is your grasp for technology (do you have a passion for it?)
3. Is your current job related to technology?
You are going to have to think in a different way... depending on the program, you will also have to learn 4 or 5 computer-based languages, and how to think logically, etc.
In the beginning, you will spend time changing into that mode of thinking. It may be a good idea to start slow...
Reply:A LOT.
Computer Science is a branch of a Mathematics degree, so a lot of math classes are involved (think calculus and above). Any degree you wish to pursue will all involve a ton of study in the college level

What's the best option for a minor to go with my major in computer science?
Just trying to get some opinions on what the best option for a minor would be to compliment my major in computer science? I am kinda drawn towards web design just because it seems to go hand and hand with computer science, but I am kinda thinking that a minor in management would be a better asset to a company that I would be trying to get hired at.
The options I have are: accounting, marketing, management, project management, human resource management, and web design.
Thanks =)
What's the best option for a minor to go with my major in computer science?
I have my own company in IT consulting and if you want to get into IT and make tons of money, then you should major in minor in accounting.
Accounting in school is the only thing on that list that you can't teach yourself. There is NO reason you should major in web design if you're a CS major. Web design classes will bore you and provide no challenge. I'm sure HTML, .NET and java are things you could easily teach yourself.
Make sure you're not doing extra schooling for this minor. Graduate on time and get WORK EXPERIENCE.
Also the best paying IT applications are in financial systems. If you had an accounting degree, that would be amazing...
Management and project management will not be taken seriously by companies because you won't have experience in this. Wait until you get experience and then get a PMP if you really like it.
Reply:Language, Language, Language. if you want to get really far in computer science you'll probably be going back to school for a masters. If you want to put yourself ahead of the game now - become as fluent as possible in another language. If you think there is any chance you could work on a more difficult language such as any of the Asian languages - you'll be a must hire when get out into the 'real world.'
Reply:I would think web design would be the best because it really does go hand in hand with your major, also it will make you more of a connoisseur it in profession with a more expert appearance.

Would I find a better job majoring in math or computer science?
Or both?
I'm currently a Freshman and, having been thinking about what I want to do after college, discovered I have no bloody clue.
I just want to make sure I make enough money to do things that I like.
I guess it would also be cool to enjoy whatever I'm doing.
Anyway, should I major in computer science or math?

That question all depends on what you consider a good job. Both majors can lead to very fulfilling careers.
With math, most people think that the only places to go are academia or government think tanks, neither of which pay very well. The truth is, math majors are treasured on Wall Street nowadays because proprietary trading is making billions of dollars every year. As a math major, you'll be a great candidate for a banking job which pays a lot but also makes you put in some horrendous hours.
With computer science, you're more likely to end up in a more traditional role as a programmer early on in your career. Compared with banking the money isn't all that impressive though it's still nothing to scoff at. The work hours tend to be better and you could even work from home.
The two options could lead to very different careers and the big question is what you want out of a job. Good luck in your search!
Reply:That's hard to answer. There are LOTS of jobs in computer science. There are a few in mathematics...mostly science related, insurance related, and education. If you really like applied mathematics, you might reconsider and try engineering.
What really makes the difference is your own personality...it's better to choose what you are good at than what might make money. because if you are no good...you won't make any money anyway.
computer science is either software development or IT stuff. Software development is fast paced and can be stressful but more exciting than basic 'science'.
