Technologies that open many doors - student's perspective

Technologies that open many doors and make dreams come true. Kinga Kudelska, a student, talks about why it is worth studying Applied Computer Science.

It is worth studying Applied Computer Science, because...

...it is a very future-oriented field of study. Since primary school I have been thinking about working in the IT industry. It's a field that is always up-to-date, but also very dynamically developing. Lodz University of Technology quickly implements these changes to the curriculum, so I know that after graduation I will be well prepared to work in my field.

Studying Applied Computer Science ...

...allows you to gain both broad engineering knowledge as well as specialise in your chosen field. During the first two years you study computer science in its broadest sense. By that time we can learn about different fields of computer science from computer graphics to SQL or programming in Java or C++. For me the best moment of the studies is the choice of the specialization, which takes place in the fifth semester of studies.

Computer graphics and multimedia

... is the specialization where I found myself. I discovered how to work in various branches of computer graphics. Together with other students we make 2D graphics such as posters, but we also model 3D game assets. We can also try our hand at professional film editing. It is worth remembering that graphic design offers many opportunities and my studies have helped me choose the right path for me. Additionally, I am active in the Student Government, which also allows me to develop my graphic design skills.

After graduation....

... I plan to work as a graphic designer. At the moment, I feel comfortable with modelling rooms, products in 3D and creating posters, flyers and graphics for social media. What I will do in the end, I have yet to see, everything is before me. But I know that with such preparation I will find a job that will bring me a lot of satisfaction.
