Career Guide For Computer Science Students

This article will be focused for three people.

1. Who are studying computer related courses (Students).
2. Who are in their final year and working on Final Year Computer projects.
3. For freshers who have completed their computer studies and looking for their first job.

Note - Kindly don’t ask me for any job as I’m not running any company but I hope, this article will guide you on how to get job easily by your hard work.

As I have mentioned, this article is focused on 3 kinds of people who are related to computer field and starting their study or career.

For easy understanding, I will separate each guide as Do’s and Don’ts.

For the students who have started their computer related studies

If you are a student and started your college life, then I really envy you as I am missing my college life now. If you are a student, then I strongly recommend you to first enjoy your life in good way (In good way with good manners). You might have the college life for 2,3 ,4 6, or more years depending on what you are studying. My recommendation is to enjoy all these years with your friends in a good manner and ways. From your final year onward, slowly focus more on your career development and find what you are interested in, in your major and study in-depth on the subject; work for more sample projects by your own interest. Let’s see.



Do’s and Don’ts during your college life

1. Enjoy each moment of your life with friends in good manner and ways.
   
   
2. Love what you study and study for yourself. It’s your career and it’s your life, so enjoy studying.
   
   
3. During each semester exam, make group studies (Note: Study while study and play while play. So when friends meet for group study, don’t discuss other things and concentrate on your studies because what % of marks you obtain, will lead you for your future success).
   
   
4. Make a plan for group studies during exam time. For example, for this semester you have exams for Operating System, Networks, C Language, C++, Java and Digital Electronics. If you are group of 5 or more friends and planning for group studies. Start your studies 10 days before exam and don’t start one day before. Each person first focus on anyone interested subject and study completely before meeting for group studies. During group studies start from one person and let him explain and teach in detail about what he has studied in that subject to all others. Same like this others can teach what they have studied. If we share and study means, we can easily understand the subject and this will lead for us to easily understand when we study individually before exam day.
   
   
5. During College Lab time, don’t waste your time for a minute. Try to make more programs during your lab time and if you have any questions or doubts, ask your professor or lab assistant immediately to help and solve the problems. Now, we are in internet world. Before going to lab, always look for more samples from the internet and study by yourself as how that was solved. During lab time, without seeing the program, try to create and solve by your own. For example, during lab time you are working with C# IF Else statement. Apart from books try to search in internet about what is C# IF ELSE statement and study more in detail about it and during lab time make yourself. This will improve your programming skills.
   
   
6. During class time, ask more questions about your subject to your professor (But ask meaningful questions). The more and more you ask, the more and more you will study in-depth on your studies.

Do’s and Don’ts during your Final Year project

Start and do all this two semesters prior to your final year project.

1. Join computer coaching class one semester prior to your final year project semester. Join extra computer coaching class to study more in detail of any one favorite subjects, like C#, ASP.NET, Java and etc. Kindly check well what coaching centers teach during their course. Don’t waste money and always check for coaching center training method with other friends and seniors before joining. Before joining, always confirm if the Computer coaching center will help you to create any offline projects during completion of course.
   
   
2. Increase your time to work with creating more sample programs of your favorite subject. Now-a-days, mostly all the students having computer in their home, try to utilize the time in best way to schedule and create sample program by yourself.
   
   
3. Instead of spending time on Facebook try to Join member of community website like CSharpCorner. Frequently visit community website and always check and read articles related to your favorite subject. Try to make similar programs like article you read. If have any question don’t hesitate to ask the author from comment section of articles.
   
   
4. Frequently visit Answer Section(Forum) of Community websites, like C-sharpCorner. Check for all question asked and answers for each question. By reading all Q/A you can find for one question more than 1 answer will be replied with more experts, this will give you more idea on how to solve one problem in different method. By watching questions and answers section frequently in future when you start programming this will help you to write programming without getting help.
   
   
5. There are plenty of projects available in internet, Download the projects match your subject and study by yourself as how the project has created.
   
   
6. Create offline Project during completion of your computer couching course. Try to make one or more project by yourself. If you have questions get support from your Couching center and also get help from community website by asking questions.
   
   
7. Improve your communication skills.
   
   
8. With friends, weekly once or monthly twice try to make Group Discussions. Within your friends select any topic (example any debate). within your friends make as two team and discuss all your opinions in English. Note during Group Discussions communicate only with English and don’t hesitate to talk your sentence even if it’s wrong as you are talking with your friends alone. Record all of your speaking and listen later and check for what you and others have made mistake and try to avoid all that errors in next discussion.
