Everything from online shopping to Big Data to robotics has its foundation in this field. By pursuing a master’s degree in computer science, you will be staying ahead of the curve of a rapidly changing field and helping ensure that you remain an asset to virtually any business.

Though many people use the terms interchangeably, there are differences between these two fields. In short, computer science typically has more to do with designing and building computer programs, applications, and software languages, whereas information technology focuses more on troubleshooting computers and their networks, systems, and databases. They are both “umbrella terms,” but it may benefit you to dig deeper into the differences as you research careers that would best fit your skills and interests.
