Had some issues fidnign where to put this, if it is in an inappropriate spot please move.
I am a high school senior, and it is nearing decision time for college. I have a few career paths in mind, and was wondering if anyone who is in those careers would care to comment on them:
Network Admin: I am very interested in networking, unfortunatly the only school I can afford does nto really seem to offer a whole lot in terms of it, but which degree would be preferable: CE or CS (with as many electives taken in networking subjects? What is starting pay like, and it the work truly interestign enough to make a career out of?
Software engineer: I would like to work close to the hardware level (driver programmer?) or developing network applications (servers, etc). Again, I am assuming CS would be good here, but is there a nice for people that are familliar with both hardware and software?
Computer Engineer: The field is so broad (EE plus some programming), that I am really not sure what types of jobs degree holders can get hired for.
Thanks in advance.
