    <content type="html">&lt;p&gt;I've changed the name back for now, as I believe &quot;computer scientist&quot; is by &lt;em&gt;far&lt;/em&gt; the more commonly used term worldwide; I've never seen the term &quot;computing scientist&quot; used, and I'm not in the US. Google would seem to support this: 983,000 hits vs 14,700 worldwide and 46,300 vs 820 in the UK. Similarly, Wikipedia doesn't even have a redirect for &quot;computing scientist&quot;.&lt;/p&gt;</content>

    <content type="html">&lt;p&gt;The title &quot;computer science&quot; is an American term. Not every country uses it since it focuses more on computers (the physical machines) rather than the actual subject matter of computation (the abstract ideas that computers execute).&lt;/p&gt;</content>
