<p>Hi guys,</p>
<p>Incoming high school senior here. I was doing some college research and was initially interested in applying to San Jose State University for Computer Science, but I calculated my Eligibility Index and found out that I'm below the Computer Science eligibility index. Then, I saw that there was a Software Engineering major offered and my Eligibility Index is well above the Eligibility Index for the Software Engineering major. So I'm definitely considering applying to SJSU with a Software Engineering major. </p>
<p>My questions are: Which major has more jobs in the Bay Area? Are the salaries the same for computer science and software engineer majors? If I'm interested in going to grad school for a CS degree, will I be able to do that through taking CS electives along with getting a Bachelor's in SE in SJSU? If I end up continuing the SE route for grad school, will I get a better job? </p>
<p>Thanks.</p>
