The year was 2001. Hector Santellanes is trying to make what some might call a difficult decision: Should he go back to school? He did, and little did he know that it would be one of the smartest decisions he would ever make. At first, his main goal was to get an education so he could eventually hold some type of managerial position, but it did not take long for the hands-on learning opportunities at the University of Minnesota Crookston to open up multiple doors that lead to the inspired businessperson and entrepreneur Hector is today.

A common misconception for many young college students, whether they found their desired career path with ease or are still unsure of what skills they can offer the job force is that an accounting degree will land you one position, a CPA (certified public accountant)

To make a long story short, and easier to grasp, there is one significant difference that separates software engineering and computer science. A difference that lies within the occupation itself: software! When thinking of computer science, the main focus is the hardware of the computer. Things such as computing (obviously), analysis, data storage and applications, etc. However, software engineering contains more of the ‘fine-tuning’ aspects of computer science and technology. For instance, the internal programming and operating information known as software. As a software engineer, the goal is to design, maintain, test and produce the software that is used by computer scientists. To say the least, they are two sides of the same coin, one profession would be less useful without the other. Software engineers, such as those who attend University of Minnesota Crookston, use the analysis and outlines of computer scientists that allows them to develop seamless frameworks and software programs.
