STUDY COMPUTER SCIENCE IN THE US
Whether you're one of the many international students weighing the relative merits of a handful of fields prior to making your final decision, or if you've already decided to study IT, it is worth noting some of the benefits to study computer science in the US. For any number of reasons—the overwhelming job placement rates of graduates, the high starting salaries, or the variety of applications—the decision to study IT is the third most popular decision for international students seeking degrees in the United States.
Career Options in Computer Science
The field of computer science is a vast discipline with many sub-disciplines and applications that span virtually every industry. Generally speaking, computer science is the study of computer technology, both hardware and software. However, that definition doesn't nearly grasp the full range of sub-disciplines (most of which are full-fledged specialized disciplines in and of themselves) encompassed in the field such as: networking, data systems, game development, telecommunications, artificial intelligence, robotics, simulation and modeling, statistics, cryptography, and computational physics and chemistry. This variety of specialization within the field means an undergraduate computer science degree can be attained at most institutions in the US, with more strict specialization taking place at the graduate level. This ensures international students who decide to study computer science in the US will be free to choose from a variety of locations and schools without having to worry about program availability.
Quality of Education
Moreover, international students looking to study computer science in the US will not just have quantity when it comes to program options, they will have quality. Not only does a computer science degree from a US institution carry weight in its own right, seven of the top 10 computer science schools (according to U.S. News and World Report) are in the US. Also, degrees from computer science programs in the United States hold four of the top 10 positions on the list of ‘Highest Paid Majors Among College Class 2010' released by the National Association of Colleges and Employers.
Availability of Work
The thorough integration of industry, commerce, and the requirements of everyday life on some application of the field of computer science have given rise to a number of conditions that amount to a windfall for international students deciding to study computer science in the US. For instance, one of the major problems facing today's college graduates is not just finding employment that utilizes their field of study, but finding employment at all. This unfortunate condition most certainly does not afflict those graduating with a computer science degree; many departments boast 89-93% career-track job placement for their graduates, and average job offer rates of 2.3 per student.
According to "Occupations with the Most New Jobs: Bachelor's Degrees", (a study released by collegeboard.org, which compiled data from U.S. Department of Labor Bureau of Labor Statistics projections for 2002-2012), six of the 10 occupations with the most new jobs were occupations related to computer science. Not only do those who study IT have the security of employment awaiting them, chances are that the student will have the luxury of choosing the career that fits them and their passions best due to the ubiquitous application of computer science across industries. Whether an application in entertainment, engineering, government, medicine, communications, education, defense, or business and commerce, the world turns on technology and those with computer science degrees will have their pick of how to utilize their in-demand skills in a lucrative career of their choosing.

Job Sites and Occupations Associated with Asbestos in Washington
Washington lies on the Pacific coast where it is home to several ports and shipyards. In fact, several of the state’s major cities, including Seattle, Tacoma, and Olympia, rely on ports and shipyards for a good portion of their business. The U.S. Navy has several facilities in the state as well, including Bremerton’s Puget Sound Naval Shipyard and the adjacent Naval Base Kitsap. The state also has a large lumber and paper manufacturing industry, as well as aircraft factories, metal-making plants, oil refineries, and power generation plants.
Though many of these facilities drive much of Washington’s economy, those that have been around since the 19th and 20th Centuries are job sites which were heavy users of asbestos. For example, The Boeing Company, one of the country’s largest aeronautical manufacturers, was founded in Seattle in 1916 and has several aircraft factories in Washington. Boeing used asbestos in its manufacturing plants for more than 50 years, thus exposing many of its employees to the toxic silicates.
Other asbestos-heavy job sites include paper mills owned by the former Crown Zellerbach manufacturing company (now Georgia-Pacific), the former Todd Dry Dock & Construction Company shipyards in Tacoma, and the Hanford Nuclear Site, which began operating in 1943. Asbestos was often mixed into cement to make buildings more fire-resistant. As a result, workers in cement plants throughout the state came into contact with asbestos regularly.
Other Washington job sites where asbestos exposure is known to have occurred include:
Fairchild Air Force Base (Spokane)
Crown Zellerbach Paper Mill (Camas)
Fast Flux Test Facility (FFTF) at Hanford Nuclear Site (Hanford/White Bluffs)
Columbia Aluminum Products (Vancouver)
Dow Chemical Co./Rohm & Haas Chemicals LLC (Elma)
Alcoa/Intalco Works Aluminum Plant (Ferndale)
Alcoa-Northwest Alloys – Longview Aluminum Plant (Longview)

Washington State’s population had an increase of over 50% between 1980-2000, with the majority residing in the Puget Sound area. Most victims of asbestos-related diseases in the last 25 years lived in the same area.
In 2010, Washington State added more strict regulations to asbestos use when it banned asbestos use in vehicles brakes. The phaseout of asbestos materials in brakes will start in 2014.
An 84-year old Vashon, Washington resident, Roger Hammet, won an asbestos-related lawsuit in 2010 of $1.4 million. Hammet was a former employee of a north end ferry when he was exposed to asbestos. He later developed terminal cancer.
Asbestos Laws in Washington
Laws and regulations for asbestos abatement and removal in the state of Washington is administered by the Washington State Department of Labor and Industries. The state has written several regulations regarding asbestos removal as well as training those that must inspect asbestos sites, and preparing individuals for asbestos removal.
Before a contractor is allowed to build, the site must be inspected in order to asses if asbestos material has the potential to disturb and cause a hazard. As a result, the contractor must have a written asbestos report from the owner, or the owner’s agent, prior to construction.
Inspections must be done by state-certified asbestos inspectors who received their licensing in the state of Washington.
Any person involved in the removal of asbestos material must contact the state, in writing, at least 10 days prior to the removal of the materials.
The state does exempt homeowners from from being certified. If asbestos material is being removed from a personal residence, the owner must use certified contractors in the removal process. Full disclosure is required and must be presented to the contractors.

Treatment Centers in Washington
When dealing with mesothelioma and other types of asbestos-related illnesses, it’s important to make sure you get the best possible treatment available, from physicians and care centers that specialize in these forms of cancer. There are are currently two treatment centers in Washington that are backed by the National Cancer Institute (NCI):
Swedish Medical Center Cancer Institute: Located in Seattle, the Swedish Medical Center Cancer Institute (SMCCI) is a non-profit care center with special focus on mesothelioma. The center’s team of mesothelioma specialists and physicians, led by Dr. Eric Vallieres, is considered among the best in region. The treatment team focuses on individualized care and trimodal treatment. The trimodality approach emphasizes a combination of chemotherapy, surgery, and radiation. As a result, many patients with mesothelioma have gone on to live several years after treatment.
University of Washington Medical Center: Similar to SMCCI, the University of Washington Medical Center (UWMC) focuses on mesothelioma and individualized treatment according to each patient’s unique situation. In a partnership with the Seattle Cancer Care Alliance, UWMC provides patients with comprehensive options. It was featured in the 2011 edition of U.S. News and World Report’s “America’s Best Hospitals.”
Washington Statute of Limitations on Mesothelioma and Asbestos Lawsuits
The statute of limitations for asbestos cases in Washington falls under Wash. Rev. Code Ann. § 4.16.005 et seq., which mandates that the lawsuit must be filed within three years from the date that the asbestos-related illness was diagnosed or within three years from the time period in which it should have been, within reason, discovered. Asbestos wrongful death cases must be filed within three years from the date of the victim’s death.
Mesothelioma Cancer
Mesothelioma is an aggressive cancer affecting the membrane lining of the lungs and abdomen.
Malignant mesothelioma is the most serious of all asbestos-related diseases. Exposure to asbestos is the primary cause and risk factor for mesothelioma.
Making a correct mesothelioma diagnosis is particularly difficult for doctors because the disease often presents with symptoms that mimic other common ailments. There is currently no known cure for mesothelioma, but treatments such as surgery and chemotherapy can help to improve the typical mesothelioma prognosis and even increase one's life expectancy.
Three major types of mesothelioma exist and they are differentiated by the organs primarily affected. Pleural mesothelioma (affecting the lung’s protective lining in the chest cavity) represents about three-quarters of all mesothelioma incidence. Peritoneal mesothelioma, which affects the abdominal cavity, and pericardial mesothelioma, which affects the cardiac cavity, comprise the remainder.
Mesothelioma CancerGet This Image For Your Site
There are three recognized mesothelioma cell types. Between 50% and 70% of all mesotheliomas are of the epithelial variety. While prognosis is generally poor, it is considered less aggressive than sarcomatoid mesothelioma and biphasic mesothelioma, which comprise the remainder of cell-type diagnoses.
The cavities within the body encompassing the chest, abdomen, and heart are surrounded by a membrane of cells known as the mesothelium. Mesothelial cells assist in general organ functions. The mesothelium is particularly important to organs that are commonly in motion, such as expansion or contraction of the lungs, stomach, or heart. Lubrication from the mesothelial cells allows free range of motion within the body. The mesothelium of the chest, abdomen, and cardiac cavity are called the pleura, the peritoneum, and the pericardium, respectively. Each of these groupings of mesothelial cells is extremely critical to the functions of the body structures which they encompass.
Malignancies (cancerous tumors) occurring within the mesothelial membranes are known as malignant mesothelioma, or simply mesothelioma. Benign tumors of the mesothelium are known to occur, but are much more rare than malignant mesothelial tumors.
While tumors of the mesothelium were first recognized in the late 18th century, it was not until the middle of the 20th century that this particular cancer was studied and examined with more detail. It was at this time when suspicions of the cancer’s causal relationship with asbestos exposure became more substantiated. A joint research venture through the Department of Thoracic Surgery at the University of the Witswater and Johannesburg General Hospital in South Africa provided the most compelling evidence of the nexus between asbestos exposure and the development of pleural mesothelioma.
Incidence of mesothelioma is still quite rare, with only 2,500-3,000 diagnoses in the United States each year. There was a spike in reported diagnoses between 1970 and 1984, which has been attributed to the latency period between diagnosis and the height of industrial exposures, which occurred roughly 40-60 years prior to this time. While exposure was common across the United States in nearly all industries, it was particularly prevalent in the WWII-era military industrial cycle, including navy shipyards.
Although this cancer is much more common in men over the age of 60, mesothelioma in women and children has been documented as well. Mesothelioma causes for diagnosis in women and children are mainly attributed to secondary exposure to asbestos, as it was not uncommon for men to bring asbestos back into the home on their bodies or clothing.

Mesothelioma is diagnosed through a comprehensive combination of biopsy and imaging scans.
Mesothelioma can be a difficult malignancy to diagnose because the symptoms of the disease closely resemble other respiratory conditions, and because the pathology can be very difficult to distinguish from adenocarcinoma of the lung. For these reasons, misdiagnosis is not uncommon in mesothelioma patients. Symptoms of mesothelioma include chest pain, chronic cough, effusions of the chest and abdomen, and the presence of blood in lung fluid.
Diagnostic surgeries, including a biopsy, will typically be required to determine the type of malignant cells that are present in the body. Typically a body imaging scan, including a magnetic resonance image (MRI), computer topography (CT scan), and/or positron emission tomography (PET), will be required to determine the extent and location of the disease. Given how rare mesothelioma is, a formal staging classification exists only for pleural mesothelioma.
While mesothelioma is typically advanced at diagnosis, treatment options are available.
Mesothelioma, while certainly an aggressive disease, is a manageable malignancy. While there is no cure for the cancer, mesothelioma treatment options may potentially include surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy. A combination of Alimta® and cisplatin is currently the only FDA-approved chemotherapy regimen, though several clinical trials are currently in progress utilizing other drugs including gemcitabine and Onconase®, that may lead to new treatment options that provide a benefit for patients.
Radiation therapy is also utilized, but typically in conjunction with other treatment methods like surgery and chemotherapy. Surgical resection of mesothelioma is possible in early-stage-diagnosed patients. Diagnostic and palliative procedures such as thoracentesis and pleurodesis are also commonly performed in patients with malignant mesothelioma in order to minimize cancer-related symptoms. Alternative therapies have also been used effectively by many mesothelioma patients to assist in managing symptoms of the disease and conventional treatments.
