Hello


Thank you for choosing CareerGuide.com!!! and writing to us. Computer science is vast that includes software applications and languages. Accordingly their career options also get diverged. As a computer science graduate one can either progress into further studies or simply choose to work for software companies.For a good example, please have a look at the picture below.

Computer Engineer

As a computer science graduate, the conventional route one may take to purse their career is into IT management or Software engineering industry. they could typically be employed as IT Specialist, Data specialist, Software engineering, Program engineer, Application engineer, Application developer, Program developer, Application tester, Network support, Program support, Network engineer, System analyst and so on. These are some of the starting roles one may take up and potentially become the domain lead after achieving the required mastery skills in that field.

It is never necessary that computer science graduates need to typically work for IT Management or only software industries. They could also take diversion into careers that require certain computer specialist skills. There are industries other than software that requires skills of computer applications. But at times the person may be required to take up additional training to be successful in such fields. So a computer science graduate could also work for beauty industry, biotech industry (remember - bioinformatics subject is partly based on computer programming?) where they could design molecules on computer, designing industry where the designs are plotted or drawn using specific computer graphic softwares, architecture designing where the building plans and design are also constructed/plotted using specific drawing softwares, human resource managing industry where SAP is incorporated to database to handle existing employees of the company and automobile engineering sector where car or bike designs are designed on computer using specific programs like the CAD software.

If the graduate is not interested in going into work, they can also pursue further education like the Master of Computer applications, Master of Computer science, Master of Information science, Master of Information management and so on. Completing a two year master degree, they could opt to do a three year PhD and chieve Doctorate degree.

Hope this helps.
