Computing is permeating modern life and data is the new resource that industries around the world are chasing. However, data analytics or applied computing cannot be taught in isolation. When applied to a particular problem or domain, knowledge of computing and the domain itself are required to effectively achieve insight. A degree in applied computing will give graduates knowledge in both computing and domains of application.Applied computing is an interdisciplinary program that provides knowledge in both computing and domains of application. In each concentration, you will obtain a solid foundation in computer science fundamentals, including algorithms, coding and software design.The following are just a few of the career opportunities available:Bioinformatics: molecular modeler, bio-statistician, database administrator, scientific curator, research scientist, computational biologistBusiness: business intelligence analyst, entrepreneur, tech marketing specialist, product manager, business relationship manager, research analystData Analytics: data architect, data scientist, data engineer, big data architect, data visualization analystGeomatics: geographic information system (GIS) analyst, GIS developer, geospatial analyst, spatial information analystInteractive Systems Design: web designer, interface developer, game designer, usability tester, front-end requirements analyst
