The Machine podcast is brought to you by the science and computing department in SETU. Faculty and students from SETU explore a wide range of topics related to computing and technology. Hosted by lecturer Rob O'Connor.
Are you interested in studying computing but feel a bit daunted or overwhelmed in deciding if this career path is for you? SETU's professional computer science educators are often asked questions from prospective students about what’s actually involved in studying computing, the types of roles one can expect after graduating, the skills a student needs, and more.
For this episode, SETU academics come together to discuss and answer some of those most common questions in a podcast.
If you’re someone who thinks computing is only for math wizards and “hardcore” programmers, this is the podcast for you! (Spoiler alert: The answer is NO.)
The discussion involves tech innovation and how ethical IT professionals can have a positive impact on the world. The hidden perks of IT careers, beyond the good salaries are also explored.
In this podcast join Amanda Freeman-Gater, Dr TJ McDonald, and Rob O’Connor from the Department of Computing and Mathematics for an easy to follow conversation on why you should study computing at SETU.
