Why I Love Computer Science: I knew going into my freshman year at NC State that I wanted to be an engineer, but beyond that I was unsure of what to major in. I initially planned on majoring in biomedical engineering before switching to computer science after hearing about the booming tech industry and talking to people I knew in the field. Once my first computer science class started freshman year, I knew I had made the right choice. It is fulfilling to be able to solve challenging problems and continuously learn every day, two things I love to do. Computer science's wide applications and near infinite possibilities make it great for someone with diverse interests like myself, and I cannot wait to see where it takes me.
