    PhD Programs in Applied Computer Science

    The area of applied computer science goes beyond theories about computation and aims to apply what is known about computerized algorithms and the manipulation of information to everyday life. This growing career field may be perfect for technologically-minded people.

    The PhD is a doctoral degree, specifically called a "doctor of philosophy" degree. This is misleading because PhD holders are not necessarily philosophers (unless they earned their degree in philosophy!). That said, PhD recipients are able to engage in thought experiments, reason about problems, and solve problems in sophisticated ways.
