I am currently accepted to the University of Guelph for a Bachelor of Computing and Mcmaster University for a Computer Science degree. I would much rather go to Guelph because it is closer to family. Is there a difference in getting a Bachelor of Computing and a Bachelor in Computer Science. This is really bothering me. They have many of the exact same courses, just they call it a different name?
What's the difference between a Bachelor of Computer Science and a Bachelor of Computing?
Not a lot - basically the same.
Thanks

Master's in Computer Science from a different educational background?
I'm halfway through a Psychology degree, which I am really interested and involved in. I know Psych. degrees are a dime a dozen, and I know that the job prospects with only a Bachelors aren't great within the field, but I feel that this degree will be fundamentally applicable to everything I do, personally and professionally.
I don't know yet if I really want to go into counseling of any type, or the typical Psych. grad school route. In researching career ideas, I've seen how much the Computer/IT industry is going to continue to be a hotbed of opportunity and development.
Finally, as the title asks, would it be possible, and wise, to look into doing a master's degree in some area of computer science or IT along with my background in Psychology?
Honestly, career options seem dim right now in many sectors. There's been so much "educational inflation." I'm trying to get the best, well-rounded education I can, while being conscious of the future of the job market and economy. Thanks.

Computer Science has always been a good choice, and always will be. However, don't expect to be paid based on your education until you have quite a few years of practical, real world experience. But once you do get that experience, with a fat Master's under your belt, your opportunities should be limitless.

You might want to consider which aspects of computing most interest you. If it's applications then you might want to look at Business IT courses. If you are interested in Artificial Intelligence then it might be a different set of courses. Looking at the on-line prospectus, along with the research interests of the staff can help.
You should also look for information on the student experience at each uni. In some cases the teaching can be by postgraduate students, as the academic staff are dedicated to their research.
Good luck.

Reply:These days, each school has its own idea and definitions of what Comp Sci is. Don't let it bamboozle or overwhelm you. Some universities list it under Industrial Technology or Information Technology so be sure to explore those areas. Others may also list it under Schools of Science and Technology as well as Business Technology. It can include anything from commercial applications (CISCO, RedHat) where the companies will actually assist in developing the curriculum to programs that actually train students in using programming languages, algorithms, etc (COBOL, FORTRAN, Perl, etc). Many things may seem like "old" technology such as first, second, third generational language programming and you may feel like you won't get the "latest and greatest" information. Be sure to look over your prospects and find a program that combines a good balance of the old with the new. There are many places that need "legacy" help and knowing or at least being quite familiar with the old will help you in the long run, especially with companies that have not got the "latest" for economic or budgeting reasons. (money makes the world go round after all).
Also, in this day and age of increasing technology use, all this stuff is adapted on a daily basis to many different career paths. It's not just used for NASA anymore! Sony (as well as other companies) is into "robotic technology" so be sure to not overlook that either. Plus, it's available in agriculture, manufacturing, textiles, medicine, business, education (imagine that), and what many may still consider "lesser" or "blue collar" applications. It's available everywhere, so be sure to keep an open mind.
Yes, the colleges listed surely have great reputations but what good is it if it's not something you prefer? Be sure to check over the websites and email the departments for more information. It would also benefit you to contact technology and computer science associations. International Association of Science and Technology for Development (IASTED) is a group. Another is the National Association of Industrial Technology (NAIT) of which I am a member. Association for Information Technology Professionals (AITP), Institute for the Certification of Computing Professionals (ICCP) is another.
It would also help if you could speak to members of honor societies in certain curricula. I'm a member of Epsilon Pi Tau, Beta Mu chapter through the ECU College of Technology %26amp; Computer Science (my degree info was listed under Industrial Technology. I have a degree in Technology Systems with a concentration in Digital Communications. See what I mean about how things are listed? Some curricula are much broader than others) . It's the third largest college for the state of North Carolina. The specific College of Technology and Computer Science at East Carolina University is made up of seven schools:
Design, Industrial Distribution and Logistics, Engineering,
Manufacturing, Construction Management, Industrial Technology and ... Computer Science!
There is the Association of College Honor Societies. Each curriculum has its own honor society. I've looked for more "global" information because I'm not sure where you are and I want this to be as complete as possible. I've got the following site because I am an EPT member http://eptglobal.org/ but I don't have any other information regarding other honor societies. I'm sure that if you ask the specific schools where you request information, they ought to be able to give you the Trustees names of their societies.
I will also list the above info in my sources listing to help you out.
I'm sorry if all this is overwhelming. If you're new to things it may benefit you to find a 2 year college first to get a better feel for what you are looking for to fit your needs and career wishes. I've seen lots of students change curricula because it really wasn't what they wanted... after 3 years of study. Sometimes they end up having to go an extra year or two because it was quite late when they figured out what they really wanted.
Yes, I am a professor, and I personally vouch for East Carolina University (alumni and adjunct). It doesn't sound like much to many, but we've made great strides in technology with corporate and community involvement.
I can also vouch for Pitt Community College (2 year college). Last year they received a sizeable grant for the Biotechnology Department.
Whatever you decide, visit as many campuses as you can. I wish you the best of luck.

Which college has the best and most active computer science program?
Between Chico State, UC Santa Barbara and San Jose State, which offers the most opportunities and has the best programs for computer science? Ranking would be nice :)
Which college has the best and most active computer science program?
Of the three, UC-Santa Barbara is in a different and much higher considered school.
Cal. State U. Chico comes next, followed very closely by San Jose State.
If you think you may go to graduate school some day, by all means consider UC-SB very seriously.

What's a GED useful for? Can it get you into any high standard college for Computer Science?
I'm arguing with a kid online who, despite never attending high school and never going through home schooling courses, plans on getting his GED and going into computer science. He's almost 18.
What's a GED useful for? Can it get you into any high standard college for Computer Science?
You can do that. It is unlikely, however, that a "high standard college" would accept him with JUST his GED. He'd probably have to go to community college first for two years and then transfer.
Reply:Well to get your GED you have to know somethings. It's akin to a Civil Service test.
And he's either playing with you or is in for a shocker.
Everything above JC/CCs want SAT or ACT with 1850 or better and you have to take a math and English placement
If you don't pass those they don't get in (at a CC you go into baby math and baby English which don't count for your core)
Math is pre-calc (algebra-trig)
Computer Science majors require
Calculus 1
Statistics
Physics 1
Chemistry 1
Electronics 1
Then all the computer stuff including 2 years of programming language.

Reply:UHHHH IT GETS YOU HIGH SCHOOL DIPLOMA BUT ITS EVERYTHING I HEARD ITS WORSE THAN THE EXITING EXAM SO ENYWHO GOOD LUCK
Reply:You can get into a four year college with a GED. The college looks at the score on the GED tests, and you also have to take placement test to see what classes you have to take (such as freshmen or remedial). GED is a hard test that only 1 out of every four high school seniors can pass it.
Reply:It really depends on the college. Two-year colleges usually have no problem with a GED and then the degree will transfer to a four-year college. Four-year colleges are stricter, but they will sometimes accept a GED, along with an entrance exam.

What kind of jobs can I get with a major in Computer Science?
I don't know what kind of jobs you can get with a bachelor's in Computer Science. Do people who work in this field get pay good money? How much?
What kind of jobs can I get with a major in Computer Science?
It depends on what area you decided to focus in on. Coming out of college with a C.S. degree will open up a alot of jobs for you...however experience is a BIG thing in this industry. You won't start out making $100,000 (try about $60,000) as a programmer...and you'll also need to figure out WHAT you want to program. Some software will be heavy in math (ie: computer games) others will not (ie: website development), figure out what you like to write and stick to that. Also alot of software development companies looks for people who know specific languages (java, python, c/c++, etc). Master a couple languages so that you'll be well rounded in the field.
Reply:Programming, you can make good money if you can get in with a good company, which you can get if you go to a school with a good CS program.
Reply:Programmer.
Reply:Yeah they get paid well check out salary.com. My husband got a bachelors degree in Computer Science and is a software engineer. Good luck soon you will make big bucks!
Reply:Come to Silicon Valley. You can make a lot of money here. Of course, the cost of living is high, but you can still do well. In IT management, you can bring in maybe $120-$150K in middle management for a moderate-size company.
As for positions, you could go into systems analysis, IT, product marketing, product design, programming, and any number of other tech fields.
