How to tie in computer science degree and psychology?
I am looking at getting a computer science degree and a minor in psychology because it is very interesting. How do I tie these two together and justify this?

One way to link them is Computer Human Interaction - usability. Check out the society linked below. They are open to all majors/backgrounds.

Where can I get a good computer science degree in NYC
Where can I get a good computer science degree in NYC?
I want a bachelor degree in computer science. Currently, I'm going for my second year at community college, so I'm going to transfer for junior year to somewhere else. There are places close by but I want to get away for the last two years. What places do you know of that have good degrees, especially for someone who likes putting computers together more than things like programming? Keep in mind that I'm not exactly rich. (: Thanks. And if you could say why the school is good, that'd be awesome.

Nothing that good in NYC, how about Cornell in NYS?

What kind of jobs can you get with a computer science degree
What kind of jobs can you get with a computer science degree?
I'm working on getting a bachelor's degree in computer science. I know this is a good degree, and I enjoy it, but there's not much information on Google about it. What kind of jobs can a Computer Science Major expect to look for out of college?

It should become clearer as you go through the undergraduate program. You can check out the following link for the information you are seeking.

How could I possibly use a Computer Science degree to get a career in the Aviation field
How could I possibly use a Computer Science degree to get a career in the Aviation field?
I would really like to become a pilot, or at least being regularly involved in a cockpit, but I don't want to let my computer science degree go to waste, with grad school a possibility, is it possible to incorporate my CS degree with planes or aviation in general? If you think I should try grad school, what's the best field of study to accomplish this?

Definitely. I'm from Australia but I just read a story like that last week, from one of our major universities. "Computing to become a Pilot Not many people would expect a computing major student to become an international airline pilot - but that is just what Vic Leung did! After finishing Computer Engineering in 1993, Vic worked for a few years in the IT industry - but his dream was always to fly the skies and see the world from a bird's-eye perspective. In 1995 he gained his private pilot's licence and was then fortunate enough to be selected for the Cadet Pilot program with Cathay Pacific. Cathay preferred applicants who had an engineering degree - particularly in Computing. (Not surprising considering there are over 200 computers on board an Airbus aircraft!) By 1996 Vic was cruising at 40,000 feet and visiting some of the most exotic countries on the earth! " Good luck!!!

Hi You should be able to do that. I believe you can perform some type of programming or engineering work in aviation. Here are some websites from another school that may help you, and they have info about possible careers. http://csm.vu.edu.au/courses/undergraduate/sbca http://www.fmuniv.edu/academic/aviation/compuscience.htm Here is some info about engineering and aviation: http://www.bls.gov/oco/ocos027.htm I don't know much about applying Computer Science with aviation technology, but I hope this helps you =)

There are a lot of computer science opportunities in the aviation industry. A lot of this will be due to more and more diagnostic being done by computers rather than man hour troubleshooting. The new Boeing 787 is even equipped with blue tooth to send diagnostic reports right to a computer. As for incorporating the CS with a pilot there is always flight simulator design. Which might be the closest you would get to mixing a pilot and CS degree. Outside of aircraft themselves in the coming years there will be the whole reform of the ATC technology. So should be opportunities in that area as well. Although not as closely linked to being a pilot. Good Luck.

What can I do with a computer science degree besides programming
What can I do with a computer science degree besides programming?
I have a Bachelor's degree in computer science. What can I do that isn't strictly programming or software development (it can involve some programming, but not where 100% of your work is coding)? Also what can I do that's outside of the IT industry? And what would I need to have or learn besides my degree to get there?

I know someone with a computer science degree who is a consultant.

You can be a software tester/quality assurance engineer. This is the person who tests the computer code written by the programmers. You can use your knowledge of coding to create automated tests, but that wouldn't have to be 100% of the time. You could test manually some of the time, write test cases and test plans some of the time, etc. A class in QA or testing methods would help, but your computer background might be sufficient. You could work in implementation. When a business installs a major software package like enterprise software or healthcare software, it's a big project taking many months to a year or more. Implementation consultants travel to the client site and install and configure the software according to the customer's needs. They also transfer existing data into the new database and interface the new software with existing applications. Coding may be useful, but it wouldn't be a main part of the job. You could be a business analyst. This is the person who works with the business client to find out their needs, desires and practices so a software package can be customized for them. A little basic business knowledge can help here, and you'll need to be comfortable making presentations and maybe training people. You could go into recruiting for IT, because you know the lingo and the concepts. You could sell b-to-b software packages or go into marketing for IT.

There are various job opportunities avialbale for you after computer science degree then only going for programming, a wide variety of career options such as: 1.Research in computer science. 2.Applying computational techniques to solving problems in other basic and applied science (physics, chemistry, biosciences, electrical engineering, etc.). 3.Developing scientific and mathematical software. 4.System software development such as device drivers and operating system. 5.Commercial software development. 6.Embedded systems. 7.Mobile application development. 8.Industrial process control. 9.Bioinformatics. 10.IT and mathematics applications in finance. 11.IT-assisted education I dnt think this include only programming, you can go as tester, business analyst, in reserach and development field, teaching field, mobile application devleopment and etc..
