security engineer with an associate in cybersecurity attending a night class to get a BSc degree in comp sci in other to get jobs at faang. currently paying out-of-state tuition of $13,500 a semester for the degree, and I have almost 4 semesters left according to an advisor. with the course outline (screenshot) attached in this post, is it worth it? or I should just go to a boot camp? and what electives will you suggest from the list?
No. Take online courses udacity/edx and attend meetups.
thank you!
The course list is useless. The name of the university matters. Again if you are concerned about tuition, chances are you are poor and should stay away from it. And if you are already working, that means you are too old for this
Huh? Faang doesn't require degree, yet alone degree in CS.
In order of prestige 😂: degree > community college > bootcamp In terms of effectiveness: Bootcamp > degree > community college
13 weeks of bootcamp != learning enough to be good at any job
Neither is a degree with only 25% of credits relevant to actual major. Either way most software engineering is learned on the job with education providing some basics.
Concentrate on skill building via self learning .don't waste money on bootcamps if you don't have money to spare.
Absolutely no. Community college is even better than this.....
Wow, I'll check out local community colleges over here.
Bootcamp’s benefit is that you have an instructor and a bunch of ppl doing the same thing BUT it is so expensive I cannot justify the cost. CC at least gives you a degree and usually cheap enough.
