I recommend checking out the Cavern of Cobol subforum, specifically the "Newbie Get a Job Megathread" thread (similar). I'm in the field and I say go with the CS degree. No one really cares about cloud computing because it is a marketing term. Like sure using remote servers for computing is useful, but the term itself is just dumb. I wouldn't base my degree around it just because of that. In 10 years it could be a relic of the past that everyone finds stupid (likely). Also if you can't find a job in this industry you're doing something wrong. You need to write code and put it up on Github or something. Again all of this and way more is in the CoC subforum. edit: Here is a link to the newbie programming thread: http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3376083 now you don't have an excuse to not look at it.

Nebs posted:Thanks, I'll have a look. You're right that job experience is going to be what is really important. But if they are mostly literally identically why would you not pick the one that actually makes sense? Re non-programming: Well I mean formal CS is pretty math heavy so you might qualify for jobs that require heavy mathematics. I guess you segue fairly OK into electrical engineering w/ embedded programming (which I find pretty fun) if you wanted to pursue another degree.
