Career Exploration Assignment:
Background:
As we discussed in class, computers are used in almost every aspect of our lives: in car engines, microwave ovens, video games, watches, telephones, desktops at home and work, mainframe computers in government and industry, and supercomputers pushing out the frontiers of science and technology. To maintain a competitive edge, American and Canadian industry must continue to make creative scientific and engineering advances and produce high quality products.
The computer and programming industry is one of the fastest growing segments of our economy. In the coming years, many jobs will focus on this sector. Currently there are not enough computer scientists, engineers, and programmer to meet the workplace demand, which continues to grow locally and throughout the world.
