<p>I was thinking about getting a B.S. in MechE , but recently I have been doing some research, and in my area there are plenty of computer related careers. I looked on craigslist and there's a whole list of jobs such as Network Field Engineer, information security analyst, program system specialist, IT network manager, and the list goes on...Is a computer Science degree broad enough to qualify me for all of these jobs? </p>
<p>Yes and no. It will get your foot in the door, but, to get the good jobs you need work experience.</p>
<p>although if your willing to do the work do computer engineering, better jobs in the long run.</p>
