If you are a student who has an interest in computer hardware and software however you are actually not sure which career path to select, you maybe want to learn about information technology (IT) and computer sciences.
These are the two rewarding career and of them requires slightly different set of skills, and they each appeal to different type of person at some extent.
An Information technology career involves the installing, organizing and maintenance of the computer system. It also involves the designing and operating networks and databases.
On the other hand, Computer science is completely focused on efficiently programming computers by utilizing the mathematical algorithms.
The career in Information technology does not essentially needs a computer science (CS) degree, though a CS degree opens some doors that otherwise would not be available.
The IT professional normally works in a business environment by installing in the internal networks, working with computer systems and might be programming.
On the other hand, the computer scientists work in an extensive range of environments, ranging from businesses to varsities to video game design companies.
Both these two careers have exceptional growth potential as well as high salaries, along with the software developers ahead of IT professionals in earnings to some extent.
A degree in Computer science gives the aspirants a demanding education in discrete math’s and in computer science theory.
Most of the computer science graduates prefer to become software developers or the Web programmers, and the aspirants who continue on to graduate-level schooling have an opportunity to do research or work in more specialized roles, like advanced artificial intelligence programming.
Here we have uploaded a complete guide of computer sciences and IT courses being offered by well-known universities of Pakistan for the convenience of students. You can also view here the list of prominent universities offering these courses and programs.
