Bad software dev. degrees that focus on fancy architecture that brings nothing to the table except overhead.
- betterThanTexas 1y agoI don't think I learned basically anything about "fancy architecture" from my undergraduate courses except, ironically, reasoning about coupling and overhead.
- ang_cire 1y agoI don't remember one solitary lecture on CI/CD, microservices, or even just deployment in general, in Uni. The closest that our comp. sci. classes ever came to touching on anything but the code itself was making us use SVN.
- danielscrubs 1y agoThe difference between a software dev degree and a comp. sci degree.
- ang_cire 1y agoI've never heard of or seen a Software Development bachelors degree? I've seen Information Systems programs, that are usually CE, after-hours tracks. Neither Harvard, Yale, nor MIT have a software dev one, just Comp. Sci. I'm calling BS (no pun intended) on "software dev degrees" as a thing distinct from CS in any widespread fashion. https://www.harvard.edu/programs/ https://www.harvard.edu/programs/ https://admissions.yale.edu/majors-and-academic-programs https://admissions.yale.edu/majors-and-academic-programs https://facts.mit.edu/degrees-majors/ https://facts.mit.edu/degrees-majors/
