There are lots of non-cs majors programming these days. I sometimes meet people who are sharp but lacking in some fundamentals. If you are having trouble getting a job, I encourage you to make the investment to get a masters in CS. You already have most of the work and I'm sure that sounds terrible, but that would catapult you into being incredibly employable, instead of being irritated at near misses. I know a lot of EE who ended up as devs, but that's a hard thing to do as a start.
- tjl 10y agoI was co-supervised by a professor in CS for my Master's degree and during my Ph.D. I did most of the CS numerical programming courses (and I did most of the computer graphics courses during my Master's). There won't be many CS courses for a Master's degree that I'd be interested in. Plus, I'd be forced to take a number of undergrad CS courses just to meet their requirements. A big problem I have now is that I'm overqualified for a lot of jobs. Getting another grad degree probably won't help. To be honest, if I was to get a CS degree, I'd probably go straight for the Ph.D. instead. There's some things in computer graphics I'd love to explore. Unfortunately, the prof I'd want to supervise me left and is now working at Intel last I checked.
