…to study “computer science and technology,” what would you want to study?
I’m currently doing a weekly supplement to a local newspaper on higher education – targeted at working adults who are looking to change careers or improve their job skills.
Most of the topics – business, education, health care – I either know a little about or I can figure out what the various subfields are with just a little poking around online.
Week after next is “computer science and technology,” though, and I’m completely freaking ignorant in the field. What are the hot and happening areas? What specific skills would you be looking to pick up? What the hell should I be looking for?
Pls. frame your answer in terms a Luddite like myself might understand.
Many, many thanks in advance.
