Computer science is about exploration, design and innovation; it is behind the tools we use daily, like web search, email, social networks and databases, as well as advanced systems like robots, driverless cars and modern aviation. The fields of engineering, science, business and social science depend on computer science, and it will be a driving force as technology continues to shape our world.
Mindcraft is an introduction to the concepts of computer science and the types of careers you can pursue with a degree in computer science.
