Hi Everyone!
Essentially, what are the main differences in Master's degrees? I'm quite new to software and programming. I am going to go back to school (work is paying ), and I'm trying to discern whether to do software engineering or computer science. I did some internet searches, and people seem to be in constant debate about the two. I want to choose the one that's right for me.
My boss said he didn't want me to do software engineering, because "they're shipping them all overseas". Is this true?
What I would like to do is to design and write programs based on others' needs. My cousin has a computer science Master's degree, and she absolutely loved where she worked (she's a stay-at-home parent now). She said she designed and wrote programs (which is what I want to do). I'm getting confused, because I thought that's what software engineers did.
Are these two options even right for me? Is there something else out there that I am overlooking? Just an FYI, I'm looking at Drexel University.
Please, please, please help me out! Thanks!!
Wade
