Hey everyone,
I’m a Junior in a Computer Science program, majoring in CS and minoring in Mathematics. But, I honestly don’t know what I want to do with it. Originally I was an engineering major, but I took an introduction to Python and discovered that I really enjoyed the problem solving involved with computer science… so I switched majors a year from graduation.
Prior to my Python course, I really had no experience programming. When I was younger (I’m 29), I messed around with making websites for clans/guilds/blogs (before dedicated blog sites existed). I made some scenarios for Age of Empires II (which I didn’t know used programming concepts until I took Python), and I also made mods for Medal of Honor Allied Assault, but that just involved going into some pk3 files and changing variables.
I’m finishing data structures this semester, which means I have mostly electives left – and all of the electives open up to me after this class. I say this to indicate that I really don’t know WHAT is available for CS majors. I know obvious ones like programming, software engineering, etc. But I want to narrow down a path. I plan on working on campus this coming semester as an SI, and then seeking internships for the coming year.
In terms of extracurricular things that I enjoy, it really just consists of playing video games. I’ve played them since I was 3 starting on MS DOS. But I know this doesn’t mean I would enjoy programming games…
I was also looking into cybersecurity jobs, but I’m not sure if this is a good idea with all the certs, etc. needed at my age. I really just want to finish my degree and get a job outside of retail. 
Any suggestions?
