Hi, My 16 yr old niece is studying STEM and looking at Stanford, Cornell, MIT, etc. for university. What would you recommend to study in terms of earning potential and quality of life Software engineer or Computer science? Thank you! #career #techcareer
Do colleges offer Software engineering snd Computer science as major options? I’ve always seen it as one or the other. Either would get you into a high paying job.
Choose Competitive programming major instead
Stanford best
Go to that top school and pick either major, CS is probably better coz it might restrict you less for course selection (it's the generic major in most places). Software Engineering major likely has a lot of overlap anyways. Check the coursework requirements.
CMU
those schools don’t even have software engineer as a major
When you don’t get computer science then you choose software engineering. Look at courses offered. That will clear your decision!
Go for phd, in 10 years us low level boys will be automated out by some AI made and maintained by phds
Only 10 years? Jeez I gotta FIRE faster.
Would recommend for her to enjoy her youth and not let it waste away doing something she’ll have to do for the rest of her life anyways Buy some alcohol for her so she can bring it to parties and be the cool kid. Just beer no liquor. Light shit too with low alcohol percentage. They’ll fake being drunk to look cool
I recommend UV Blue, because it’s blue
Buy your niece some Udemy courses and a Leetcode Premium. That’s enough!
Helpful, thank you! But which career is better for earning potential and career path? Thank you!
Worst advice ever.
