The problem with leaving the country is that your very good degree is now almost worthless. I got mine (from a good technical uni) issued in English, I even wrote my thesis in English. Not a single employer wanted to look at it. Yet, I earn the same as my colleague with a PhD from a local uni. Turns out no one cares about degrees in software engineering. Maybe it's different in your industry.
- ceejayoz 12y agoSoftware engineering is probably one of the specialties better suited for an apprenticeship-style program rather than a degree-based one.
- gambiting 12y agoYeah. I got my job in the games industry as an intern programmer before even graduating. When I finally did graduate, they were like "oh , cool", and that's it. I guess that even if I dropped out of uni they wouldn't care - I was doing my job and that's what was important.
- doctorKrieger 12y agoNah i'm in Computer Science aswell, although i'm planning to hit data science instead of software engineering. As for the degree i'm mostly doing it in case i'd like to go and do a PhD.
