Pursuing Computer Science as a major

Posted on | December 1, 2009 | 1 Comment

There’s a good thread in Hacker News that’s about pursuing Computer Science as a major. Interesting opinions about who should pursue CS and why.

I believe that pursuing a CS major would help even if you are not looking to be a programmer or a technologist. It helps you build good math and logic skills, which will be extremely useful in any field you choose to be. Just to be clear, being a CS major does not guarantee great coding skills.

    Most of the CS (and not CE) graduates from my batch are not even in the business of writing code. Most of the non-CS graduates from my batch are writing code for a living.
