[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People don't seem to understand that the kids that graduate from a CS program and typically much more intelligent that the others who didn't, especially considering the competition to get into those programs over the past several years.  Do you think they won't be able to figure out their careers relative to someone who majored in, what, English?[/quote]

There are more CS hires, for sure, but Google hires more philosophy degree grads straight out of college than any other company. Humanities majors who want to move into product dev/man honestly can do okay. Not many want that, but if they do .. it's there. [/quote]

The question is not if they do, but if they CAN do.  A few liberal arts majors (especially those from Ivys) can learn and adapt quickly, and they are willing to venture out of their comfort zones.  But many liberal arts majors can’t.  I’ll take a civil or environmental engineering major over any liberal arts major any day. [/quote]
Top 10 paying jobs are all in engineering jobs, and computer engineering is not even the #1 paying job, but it is in the Top 10.

And there's a reason for that.[/quote]
