ClintonNzedimma:About logic you are correct, you need that in programming, but I can tell you from experience, you need math as a computer scientists, I have assisted in at least 5 phd research, 15 Msc research, between 2011 -2016 you need to present a mathematical model for your proposed solution to any problem you were able to identify during your project research, Bsc project may not involve that, but msc and phd will surely do |

Vstuffs: Computer science is wide sir, and programming is under computer science. So how will a person be a programmer and not a computer scientist.. I think nairalanders should give their comment on this |

adigun27: It is very important to understand what computer Science is. When you learn a programming language it is like learning yoruba generating appropriate statements in Yoruba Bt that does not make you a Yoruba person by birth, there will be plenty of word history in the language u would never understand . This analogy applies to those who learn programming languages without a proper education in CSC . Programming languages are only mediums/tools used to implement algorithms that those who didn't study computer Science can never understand. How do you explain computational complexities key for evaluation of most CSC systems especially in security. You see a brief definition of who computer scientist are, is captioned in the definition below: Computer science is the study of computational processes and information structures, including their hardware realizations, their linguistic models, and their applications. Areas in CSC include: algorithms, architecture, computational science, graphics, human-computer interaction, information management, intelligent systems, net-centric computing, operating systems, programming languages, and software engineering. Those who study CSC don't engage in trial and errors because they understand the principles. EkSU is a good ground to learn Computer Science as all classes are both theoretical and practical encompassing. Even our hardware lab where we discuss and design, implement digital logic , design/implement computer arithmetic and architecture is something to admire. Everyone of Our lecturers are practically equipped. As for that student, you certainly are one of those spill bad eggs who chose the course computer Science thinking it is bribe your way around event and no true practical understanding, the lecturer you mentioned uses C++ while teaching data structures and Java. Computer science embraces math, physics,biology. Understand that no subject is irrelevant in the course of studying CSC, today we have computational biology. Most security systems are exploiting biology for effective security but we still deal with the place of computational complexity in memory and time. Researches in security are exploring every relevant course to improve on available security. Computer scientist are not just programmers they are computer Science, the future. The person who gave this information on the choice of school is RIGHT to have included EKSU. 3 Likes |

jerrisonjeff: u just coded in C++ language..... well at least I know 6 programming languages... include Mysql and Oracle |

patriotsam: Being a programmer doesn't make you a computer scientist. Google about what computer science entails. Does ordinary programmers know algorithms? Can they analyse algorithms? Do they know how those programs run in the computer? Do they under computer architecture? A pol Sci student can learn how to program but they are not computer scientist. Do you know the reason why some companies demand that you have your first degree in computer science before they can employ u to their IT department? Because they understand what it takes to be a computer scientist. 1 Like |

jumaian: I'm not saying computer science is all about programming, but programming is under computer science and for someone to know programming, he's already a computer scientist. Abeg, nairalanders, contribute to this argument |

Look guys, CS isn't about mathematics only, please stop saying that. It's about how well your problem solving skills are, which means you should be good at logic. Different problems have different solutions, e.g. if you're working in a scientific company, chances are your programming will involve lots of formulas and equations. However, if you're working in a place that isn't really scientific or similar, chances are you won't use maths often The programming aspect of CS is just like real languages, someone may know big grammar and long words(formulae and equations) but he may not tailor them well to write a script, story, poem, essay or article, and as such he has failed to communicate. Now if another knows simple grammar but can arrange it in a pleasing way to be enjoyed, he has communicated and solved problems, that's logic and good thinking at play. Computer Science is about how well you can use the computer to solve problems, not endless equations that lead nowhere |
