Degree: Bachelor of Computer Science
Who or what made you choose to study this?
I am fascinated by technology and how it can be used to solve problems and improve people’s life. It offers a wide range of career opportunities including software development, data analysis, and cyber security. It requires the ability to think critically and offers challenging problems which are so rewarding. I have been coding since 8th grade and when I wrote my first code which was to print “hello world”; and that I could make a machine do that was so fascinating to me and I felt so powerful.
What do you love most about your degree?
Coding. I love coding. As a child, I enjoyed solving puzzles and crosswords. When I came across coding in 8th grade, it was addicting. I got to code different patterns and solve basic problems using code. Everything at that time was so fascinating and I wanted to explore and go deeper.
