My name is Michael Christian. I am a senior entering my final semester this fall at Southern Wesleyan University in Central, South Carolina. I major in computer science. My anticipated graduation is in December, 2014. I am originally from Toccoa, Georgia.

Why Computer Science?

I decided to study computer science because everything we do involves some type of technology. Whether its driving a car, watching television, or using a cell phone, we use it for everything. Technology is the driving force of our society and I was always interested in how does it work and why does it work? My curiosity led me to computer science. As a DREU student at The University of Texas at Dallas, I will be given the chance to study the security side of technology and how its design protect us from everyday threats.
