READING

MY FUTURE PROFESSION – A PROGRAMMER

I am a student of Polotsk State University. I study at the Radioengineering faculty. Our faculty has 3 departments: the department of radioengineering, the radio design department, the department of computer nets and systems. I am a student of the department which trains specialists working with computers, computer nets and systems.

Computers and computer communications is a thing of great importance in our life. Computer does different tasks in many fields. Industrial plants, factories use computers to control production; computers are widely used in navigation on ships, airplanes and spacecrafts. Computer equipment helps scientists to solve many problems dealing with collecting, processing and analyzing the data. Computers can be used as teaching machines and also they provide entertainment in the form of computerized games. It's hardly possible to name a sphere of our life, such as science, engineering, national economy, where computer equipment is not used.

My future profession is a programmer and also the graduates of our department can work with computer nets and systems. I think, my profession is very important and extremely popular now, but I should say it is very difficult and complicated, too. Generally the graduates of our department will work dealing with programming. This involves the preparation and creating detailed instructions for a computer. These instructions, which are often called programmes, instruct a computer what to do with the data it receives. A programmer writes the instructions for a computer in a programming language. Thus our graduates will also deal with many programming languages such as: Basic, Pascal, C, Assembler, etc. So our graduates must have a vast amount of knowledge to work with computer.

To become a good specialist one must study hard. The students of our University have all opportunities to become highly-qualified specialists with thorough knowledge of computer. First-year students study higher mathematics, informatics, computer engineering techniques, etc. Later they will acquire deep and profound knowledge in cybernetics, programming methods, computer languages, systems, etc. Special attention will be paid to such subjects as microprocessors, software development methods, computer languages study. The knowledge of foreign languages, especially English, is very important taking into account the latest achievements in computer technologies. Such countries as Japan and the USA, well-known leaders on computer market, use

18

the English language in their programmes and utilities. To work successfully with the modern programmes the students of our speciality should know English rather well.

Besides, the students get practical skills in different laboratories equipped with modern apparatus and computers. There is a computing centre and many computer classrooms in our University. Our University provides deep computer education and the graduates of our department will be able to work at computing centers, different firms, research laboratories and institutes, industrial plants and enterprises. Also they can work with multichannel communication devices, computer systems, robots. They also deal with industrial, home and office automation.

We live in the age of electronics and computers, which are used almost everywhere and I think my profession has a great future.
