Yes, it was CS/math/programming lite with extra courses in more IT infrastructure - like networking, security, penetration testing, compliance, project management, forensics, incident response, etc.
I did take calc 1, linear algebra, physics 1 with calc 1, discrete math, algo/data structures but that's about it.
- jryan49 8y agoSo no software engineering (architecture) or programming courses? You can probably learn what you would learn in those classes by yourself if you find the right resources and are a self learner. Most people will not care about your degree if you can prove you have the skills they need.
- calucardx 8y agoI did take a SQL, Java and Python courses but they weren't very good. I'm definitely more of a self learner but I feel without the BS in Computer Science credential, I won't be taken seriously.
- jryan49 8y agoI know plenty of devs without even a BS at all. I think you should go for it, and try for a job and only go back if you really are having issues. Just make sure to prepare for the interviews.
- jki275 8y agoWithout those courses your foundation in CS is badly lacking. CIS is not CS, it's IT.
