“University presses don’t just publish books: they keep books in print and rescue out-of-print books from obscurity … But the digital age complicates and threatens the mission of the country’s approximately 100 university presses. Ellen Faran, director of MIT Press, recently told Harvard Magazine: ‘I like doing things that are impossible, and there’s nothing more impossible than university-press publishing.’”

hi there! i’m a high schooler and i’m seriously considering majoring in computer science when the time comes. do you think you could maybe talk a little bit about what it’s like studying comp sci? if you can. i hope you’re having a great day

hope you’re having a great day too!

What my first year of studying computer science was like

obligatory preface that courses differ between universities and colleges. i study in australia.

The biggest challenge I faced per se going into comp sci was how nothing I did at school prepared me for it. The kind of content I’ve learnt wasn’t similiar to school and the assignments have been very different. No analytical essays and scientific reports for me (there has been essays and reports tho). In my school IT class I learnt basic HTML and CSS which was the only programming knowledge I went into comp sci with. (Id also gotten pretty far on khan academy’s JavaScript course in like year ten but I’ve forgotten all of that now lol).

I have four units a semester and have completed my first year (of 3, although I’m taking less units this year so I’ll finish in 3.5 years).

What I actually did in my first year:

Semester 1 (pre-major picking, two of these were for the other major option)

Learnt general computer hardware and how it functions. The assignment was using a raspberry pi to do something that used hardware (the pi), software (basic code) and the internet (I used twitter). My project is on Twitter at SunsetIFB102

Group project app design stages. Like drawing the layouts, getting feedback, then digital sketches then semi fancy looking sketches (not comp sci major)

Python! I really liked this. Taught the basics of python and in general programming. It was kind of intimidating how many people had coded before so I had to focus on ignoring them and learning for myself. Also really salty I was 1% off a high distinction for the whole unit AGH

Databases and SQL. This would’ve been a useful unit if the lecturer was, how do I put this kindly, good at his job. (Not comp sci major, although definitely use databases later on)

Semester two (all comp sci major)

C# , basics of object oriented programming principles. Which is a fancy way of saying it taught how you should write your code so it’s laid out effectively.

C, how to program microprocessors. Basically how to program hardware machines. C is mostly used for machines like ATMs, a fridge perhaps, probably a roomba and other single purpose kind of things. Also from this I can program arduinos and read arduino code easier since arduino code is a C/C++ hybrid. (This and the previous unit had high fail rates and were honestly Tough)

Information security (apart of network security minor) This unit talked about processes of protecting information in organisations and on a single person level. Basics of cryptography was discussed and hashes and how ways information is kept secure when transferring between objects (like over the internet)

Computation mathematics (apart of intelligent systems minor). This was a weird unit to me and was mostly math majors. It taught all these different equations which allow you to make approximations. Honestly confused how it’s used for computers but we learnt MATLAB and it’s a pre requisite for an intro to robotics unit I’m taking this year :)

So yeah, that’s an account of what I actually studied. Reading over it it seems way more impressive than it probably was. Computer science isn’t easy (well, unless you want to scrape a pass each time) but it isn’t horribly difficult. It’s how different it is to high school work that can trip you up. I can’t make aesthetic studyblr notes on paper because its all on my computer and can’t turn it off when studying because I need it.

My assignments are typically big coding projects, exams (multiple choice if a coding unit) and essays if it deals with theory (like info sec did).

This coming semester I’m learning Java and GUI’s (graphical user interfaces), JavaScript and HTML and whatever else for web applications, and discrete maths which seems to be for notation used later on... it looks very strange.

Hope this helps! If you have any more questions feel free to DM me!

Also if anyone else wants to add their experiences, feel free to reblog with your tips.

Kenapa Perempuan Harus Melek Teknologi?

Inikah hal-hal yangbiasa kamu lakukan: menelfon pacar ketika ada masalah dengan laptopmu, mengirim sms kepada kawan ketika ada masalah kehilangan koneksi internet pada gadget mu? Mengantar komputer mu ke Tukang Servis padahal hanya untuk menginstall satu software yang sebetulnya sangat mudah..     Yaa, hal-hal tersebut pun masih dilakukan banyak perempuan di dunia yang super modern ini, bahkan pada mereka yang pengguna setia teknologi gadget sekalipun. Mungkin kita masih bisa memaklumkan ketika perempuan yang menyetir mobilnya sendiri harus panik menelfon bengkel ketika tiba-tiba mogok di jalan, tapi untuk sebuah komputer? Apakah komputer jauh lebih complicated dari pada mobil. Melek teknologi tidak selamanya, karena user adalah master IT, melainkan karena keinginan untuk bisa menyelesaikan segala sesuatunya tanpa perlu bergantung kepada orang lain, khususnya untuk hal-hal kecil.

        Dunia modern hari ini menuntut kita untuk belajar sesuatu secara cepat, namun tidak instant, sama halnya dengan memahami komputer yang kita gunakan setiap harinya untuk bekerja atau sekedar mencari hiburan dan kawan.      Bukanlah suatu hal yang sulit untuk belajar mereparasi komputer mu sendiri, atau melihat masalah yang terjadi dengan gadget mu. Kalau kamu pengguna setia Internet pasti sudah akrab dengan yang namanya mesin Pencari Google. Selain untuk bekerja pada suatu bidang yang kita tekuni, Google selalu berguna untuk semua bidang, termasuk IT. Manfaatkan mesin pencari Google mu untuk mengetahui masalah apa yang terjadi ketika wireless laptop mu tidak bisa tersambung dengan koneksi internet di satu kafe yang kamu datangi misalnya. Selanjutnya lakukan solusi sebagaimana informasi-informasi tersebar di internet, kalau masih belum bisa berhasil, barulah datang ke Teknisi, atau menelfon seseorang untuk meminta pertolongan.        Belakangan, karena maraknya seruan-seruan Perempuan Melek Teknologi di berbagai Media, cetak maupun online, juga banyak pusat-pusat belajar yang menawarkan model belajar singkat dengan materi-materi teknologi ringan yang mudah dipahami, sehingga perempuan dapat menyelesaikan masalahnya sendiri. Sesekali mungkin menarik untuk mengikuti kelas Windows misalnya.       Kemampuan dalam penguasaan Teknologi Komputer juga akan membawa manfaat tersendiri untuk karir di kantor, selain mahir menggunakan program office, penguasaan terhadap beberapa model program komputer seperti Database System, aplikasi SPSS, sampai design graphics akan menjadi tambahan prestasi sendiri untuk peningkatan karirmu.

Xoxoxoxo crazy!!!!! Im in love on this!

Some studyspo for messy desk-keepers like me :-)
