Assignment1_(3): Why did you choose your major?

Choosing the major will still be hard in school life for some people. My major is CSIE (Computer Science Information Engineering), and there are two reasons for me to choose the major. First, the field is interesting. Second, I am not good enough to have a appropriate job in this field; therefore, I want to learn more professional knowledge, logic thinking, technical skills et cetera.

Before I came to NTUST, I had worked for years as assistant engineer at electric hardware deportment for Soliton Technologies Company. At that time, I learned so many things from my boss and assignments which are electronic hardware I have been given from my boss, but I was once assigned to write a software program for hardware controlling. For example, the LED light on/off, transmit or receive data from one computer to another and access data at random-access memory, and all of these actions follows programe statements. I saw many funny and interesting things that I have never learned before.

At that moment, I also realized the professional knowledge that I had known was too few, so I cannot do my job better and efficient. If you get a project, you need to know how to do or handle it correctly and efficiently. For instance, you need to know "Computer Organization" to make correct assignment for your resource, then you should learn "Algorithms," which helps you to implement request functions and makes program structure to accord the project. As mentioned above, these skills are belong to Computer Science so I designed to go back to college for increase my ability. Now I am a student of CSIE department and I am happy to learn things from my major.

There are many kinds of reasons for people to choose their major. For me, I chose my major based on pleasure, getting a better job and improving knowledge. How about you? Nor matter what reason you choose, just enjoy yourself in your major.
