Hey, guys! I have a question, do any of you also wnt to major (or minor) in software engineering, when you're in college? I still have a little bit (I'm also taking a gap year), but I have really been enjoying computer programming. Also, I have some recommendations on helpful programming books, if anyone wants them!

ferndeafgal

Not really, I’m not too interested in engineering and tech stuff :)

When I show grandma when she's curious, she gets tense XD

Hi! I don't want to major in software engineering but my dad works in cybersecurity so I know a lot about tech! I actually want to be a UX designer, which does use software so I guess they are similar. That's really cool you know what you want to be!

doggiechristmas

Wow, Impressive! And thank you! <3
