Hey guys, I'm currently a sophomore at George Mason University here in VA and have an internship doing network administration for a local asset management company. I am studying for my B.S. in IT with a specialization in DB/software development. There is quite a bit of SQL and Java, though obviously not as much Java as a CS major.
I would like to get into C#/.NET development, but I really have no idea where to start. I am pretty decent with Java (I have written a few small apps to perform miscellaneous tasks for the accountants and asset managers), but I wouldn't say I'm skilled enough yet to work for an open source project or anything like that. What are your recommendations? Do you guys think an IT degree vs a CS degree will hold me back in terms of career prospects?
