Informatyka stosowana test

Find out if Applied Computer Science is the right major for you!

1. Do you enjoy applying computing techniques to solve practical, real-world problems?

2. Are you comfortable using programming and tools to build and deploy working software or systems?

3. Do you enjoy integrating different technologies (databases, APIs, UI, backend) to make complete systems?

4. Are you interested in optimizing performance, reliability, and usability in deployed applications?

5. Do you enjoy working with data—collecting, cleaning, analyzing, and using it to drive decisions?

6. Are you motivated to understand user needs and adapt technical solutions accordingly?

7. Do you enjoy collaborating with people from other domains (business, design, engineering) to deliver solutions?

8. Are you willing to continuously learn new frameworks, tools, and technologies as practical needs evolve?

9. Do you enjoy debugging and refining working systems rather than only theorizing?

10. Do you want to apply computing skills to domains like healthcare, logistics, finance, or environmental systems?

Definitions and quotes

Computer
A computer is a device that can be instructed to carry out sequences of arithmetic or logical operations automatically via computer programming. Modern computers have the ability to follow generalized sets of operations, called programs. These programs enable computers to perform an extremely wide range of tasks.
Computer Science
Computer science is the study of the theory, experimentation, and engineering that form the basis for the design and use of computers. It is the scientific and practical approach to computation and its applications and the systematic study of the feasibility, structure, expression, and mechanization of the methodical procedures (or algorithms) that underlie the acquisition, representation, processing, storage, communication of, and access to, information. An alternate, more succinct definition of computer science is the study of automating algorithmic processes that scale. A computer scientist specializes in the theory of computation and the design of computational systems. See glossary of computer science.
Science
Science (from Latin scientia, meaning "knowledge") is a systematic enterprise that builds and organizes knowledge in the form of testable explanations and predictions about the universe.
Computer Science
I can’t be as confident about computer science as I can about biology. Biology easily has 500 years of exciting problems to work on. It’s at that level.
Donald Knuth (1993) Computer Literacy Bookshops Interview
Science
Science has an important part to play in our everyday existence, and there is far too much neglect of science; but its intention is to supplement not to supplant the familiar outlook.
Arthur Eddington, Science and the Unseen World (1929).
Computer Science
During the last years of the 1950s, the terminology in the field of computing was discussed in the Communications of the ACM, and a number of terms for the practitioners of the field of computing were suggested: turingineer, turologist, flowcharts-man, applied meta-mathematician, applied epistemologist, comptologist, hypologist, and computologist. The corresponding names of the discipline were, for instance, comptology, hypology, and computology. Later Peter Naur suggested the terms datalogy, datamatics, and datamaton for the names of the field, its practitioners, and the machine, and recently George McKee suggested the term computics. None of these terms stuck...
