At present, computer majors in China are mainly divided into three categories: computer basic majors, computer majors intersecting with science and engineering, and computer majors intersecting with arts and sciences.
1. Computer Basic Major
Professional Requirements and Employment Orientation: These majors not only require students to master basic computer theory and application development technology, but also require students to have strong practical ability. After graduation, students can engage in the development and maintenance of computer applications and computer network systems in enterprises and government departments.
Recommended institutions: National University of Defense Technology, Tsinghua University, Peking University, Shanghai Jiaotong University, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, Northeastern University, Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications, Nanjing University and Southeast University.
2. Computer science and engineering cross.
There are many computer majors derived from the intersection of science and engineering, such as mathematics and applied mathematics, automation, information and computing science, communication engineering, electronic information engineering, computer application and maintenance, etc.
1) Mathematics and Applied Mathematics Major:
Professional requirements and employment direction: Mathematics and applied mathematics are the foundation and rising platform of computer specialty, and they are one of the majors closely related to computer science and technology. Compared with computer science and technology, the employment of this major is much wider, which is not only suitable for IT field, but also suitable for mathematics field.
Recommended institutions: Tongji University, Southeast University, Sun Yat-sen University, Ningbo University and Shenzhen University.
2) Automation major:
Professional requirements and employment direction: Automation major is a wide-caliber major that integrates many majors in the field of automatic control. It requires students to master the basic theory of automatic control and develop a professional curriculum system based on the emerging application field of information system and information network control, which is the core specialty of industrial manufacturing. Graduates majoring in automation have a strong employment foundation and advantages.
Recommended institutions: Tsinghua University, Southeast University, Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications and Chongqing University.
3) Information and Computing Science:
Professional Requirements and Employment Orientation: This is a major formed by the cross-infiltration of information science, computational mathematics, logistics and control science. Employment involves teaching, business, network development, software design and other aspects, and the employment rate is as high as 95%.
Recommended institutions: Tsinghua University, Nanjing University and Suzhou University.
4) Communication Engineering Major:
Professional requirements and employment direction: Communication engineering majors require students to master the basic theories and foundations of communication technologies such as communication, microwave, radio and multimedia, as well as electronic and computer technologies, which have excellent employment advantages in the information age.
Recommended institutions: Fudan University, Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications, Jilin University, Harbin Institute of Technology, Nanjing University of Science and Technology.
5) Electronic information engineering:
Professional Requirements and Employment Orientation: Electronic Information Engineering is a wide-caliber major, which mainly trains senior IT talents in the fields of information technology, electronic engineering and network system integration. Graduates can engage in the research, design, manufacture, application and development of electronic equipment, information systems and communication systems.
Recommended institutions: Zhejiang University, Tsinghua University, Xiamen University, Wuhan University, Sichuan University and Yunnan University.
