Technology is intricately woven into our daily lives, and the devices and applications we use are changing rapidly. Most people are never without their cell phone, and being off-line is an unfamiliar concept, at least for students. Computers hold our music and photo libraries, they allow us to watch movies and television shows anywhere and anytime, and we rely more and more heavily on the Web for researching most any question or subject. Today’s technology provides access to most anyone and anything worldwide.

Computer scientists are integral to numerous aspects of our everyday lives and are responsible for advances in many diverse fields in the modern world such as computer security, the learning sciences, weather forecasting, smartphone application development, and network gaming. These industries are able to continuously evolve and improve through the work of computer scientists.
