Should I be a Computer Science major?

Name: Anonymous 2007-09-29 23:46 ID:1DRSIDnC

I have been leaning towards Computer Science for a while. I already have a pretty decent amount of experience in programming and haven taken a few Computer Science classes. The main question I have is, how are the job prospects as a Computer Science major. I hear that the problem solving/logical skills work in a bunch of different jobs but are you pretty much limited to being a programmer?

Not really, no. Most jobs don't care what kind of degree you have, as long as you're capable.

Make sure your course load is varied. Do a wide range of things when you first hit the workforce too, even if it's just serving coffee.

Also, the prospects of developers specifically depends very heavily where you are. In some place they can't be had for love or money, while in others you're just another unemployed monkey.
