My husband has an IT job with a local university and it doesn’t pay the best but it is a lot more secure. He can also go back and pursue higher degrees with his tuition waived. To us that is a great thing. The benefits he recieves are also excellent. He walks to work too, so I’m happy that he doesn’t have to drive 3 hours a day!
He also didn’t do one of those 9 month type of programs. He got his B.S. in Computer Science. They have some very tough classes. It is not an easy program and being a business major probably would’ve been a lot easier (Can I say that, being the proud wife?). He made the right choice for him and he loves that he gets to solve problems all day. He also doesn’t ever have to work late either. Its working well for us and we hope that it continues to in the future.
I don’t like taking higher level math and physics courses so a C.S. major was definetely not in the cards for me! Good luck in your decision!
