I am a second year student of Omsk State Technical University, the department of Information Technologies and Computer Systems. I specialize in the field of IT and after 4 years of studies I’ll get a bachelor’s degree and become a computer engineer.

The first large-scale electronic computer, the Electronic Numerical Integrator and Computer (ENIAC), became operational in 1946. It contained approximately 18,000 electronic vacuum tubes of the size of light bulbs that controlled the flow of electric current. The ENIAC, which weighed 30 tons and occupied about 1,500 square feet of floor space – a huge machine compared to today’s standards – was able to perform a scientific calculation involving the multiplication of found numbers in approximately 9 milliseconds (9/1,000ths of a second). Since that time, the technology used in the design and production of computers has accelerated at remarkable pace.

Most ICT-related jobs (ICT – Information and Communication Technologies) have developed to meet the need to analyze, design, develop, manage or support computer software, hardware or networks. All the people involved in the different stages of development of a computer project, i.e. analysts, programmers, support specialists, etc. are controlled by a project manager.

A database analyst is in charge of the research and development of databases, network analysts study the network requirements and recommend the most suitable type of network; systems analysts decide what ICT system will cater for the requirements of a specific institution. Web designers, also called webmasters, create and maintain web pages and web applications for websites. Software engineers, either application programmers or systems programmers, plan, design, and test computer programs. Hardware engineers design and develop ICT devices. Security specialists specialize in the design of software and hardware to protect information from malware: viruses, spyware, etc. Network or computer systems administrators install and maintain networks. Database administrators manage the accuracy and efficiency of databases. Computer operators control computer data processing. Help desk technicians are in charge of troubleshooting, the solution of technical problems. Computer training instructors or trainers teach people how to use hardware and software. Technical writers write the instructions for ICT systems.

To become skilled computer engineers we study both general purpose subjects and special ones. Having got profound knowledge in physics, higher mathematics, descriptive geometry, technical drawing, and electrical engineering we are to be trained in control systems, as well. Apart from special subjects we are also involved in mastering general purpose subjects. Our theoretical training is done alongside with scientific research work at the University computer centre and major computer companies of our city.

Our studying is also combined with practical training at the up-to date enterprises of our city. The teaching staff of our university is presented by highly qualified professors and teachers.

During the course of studying we are to prepare term papers and at the end we are supposed to defend graduation papers on the problems concerning computer systems and operational systems, word processing, data base, programming, programming languages, ICT systems, networks, Web-design and so on and so forth.

A qualified specialist should bear in mind that carrying out research work is singularly important as well as reading scientific literature. After receiving the bachelor’s degree, those students who are keen on science, are able to continue their education in magestry and post-graduate courses. All these factors are of great help in developing into sensible, responsible and skilled engineer in computing.
