Everything About Computer Science, Software Engineering, and Computer Engineering

Perhaps its time to compile all the knowledge we all have on Computer Science, Software Engineering, and Computer Engineering into a single, one-stop resource for prospective students to any university. I mean, if you look around the boards and such, the content is all over the place. So, what I propose is:

1. We add links to all the posts with relevant information on this board and blog.
2. We add people's experiences with the disciplines at a University.
3. We add links to relevant information from external sources.
4. We bother someone until they sticky the post.

I mean ANYTHING relevant to this topic at all should be added. Whether it be University course lists, personal experiences, opinions, debates, ANYTHING.

Please contribute Smile..

Well we don't want it to be all "engineering" do we?

Heres a link to the Fields Institute at the University of Toronto. They give talks about computer science and math and have audio recordings available on their site of some of them. I went to see a lecture earlier this week by Allan Borodin on algorithms and it was great.

Code wars are a great way to find the best computer science students.

Computer scientists are primarily concerned with the design of algorithms, languages, hardware architecture, systems software, applications software and tools. Applications range from simple game playing to the control of space vehicles, power plants and factories, from banking machines to intelligent fault and medical diagnosis. Computer professionals, in short, are concerned with the creation of computer and information systems for the benefit of society..........
