What would you consider as a major with potential to become the most essential for businesses?

I am planning to major in Computer Science for my first year of college next fall but looking for any other majors that could affect businesses in the near future. #computer-science #computer-software #business #college-major #computer-programming #computer-hardware #computer-networking #computer-security

In the Computer Science/Programming field, are credentials more important than student projects?

I plan to get a Master's degree in Computer Science, Programming, Software Engineering, or a related field. However, a lot of people I've talked to in the Computer Science field have told me that a MS degree in this field is unnecessary, and potential employers will judge you more based on any apps, programs, or other coded works you've designed rather than a certificate. Meaning, if I were to spend time programming an application for a company that is efficient while in college, even with a BS, I will have a higher chance of securing a career in that area than someone with a MS, or even a Ph.D. Could I get some professional input on this? #computer-software #software #programming #software-engineering #computer-programming #software-development #coding #computer-security

Would it be wise to take AP Calculus to pursue a career in Information Technology?

Hi, I just became a senior in high school and have plans to pursue a career in IT security. I have a choice to take AP Calculus this year. My other options are Business Math or Statistics. Would Calculus be a helpful course to prepare for an IT career? I know it is not a mandatory course to take, like it would be for someone entering Computer Science. But I have looked at other discussions and many people says that it helps you think differently. Thank you for any advice and comments. #information-technology #cyber-security #computer-security #it-management #information-security #it-security

How should I figure out what job I should do within cybersecurity?

I'm currently a junior in high school and i'm very intrigued by a career in cyber security because i've been told that this is a really good field to get into, but i'm not exactly sure what job options are available to me within cyber security. I'm thinking about marketing.. but I'm not set on that career choice. Is that even an option? How did you figure out what you wanted to do? Are there jobs that are harder to get than others in this industry? What job do you do and how do you like it? #technology #marketing #cyber-security #computer-security #network-security #information-security
