If computers and devices couldn’t share information—there would be no scrolling social media, buying last minute gifts on Amazon or collaborating remotely on a group project. Computers and devices use network systems to communicate and share information—much like how we do via social media platforms. Computer network architects are critical thinkers who understand business needs then plan and design computer systems to best meet these requirements. Their work enables us to use technology to the fullest potential every day.

We live in a world of green and growing things; fruits, vegetables, flowers and other types of plants not only make our world beautiful, but they also provide the food we need.  The plant world contains thousands of varieties of plants that Horticulturists study and conduct experiments on to develop ways to maximize their growth and health.  They may determine optimal soil composition, research chemical-free pest management solutions or oversee nurseries and greenhouses.
