Q. I've Been under a lot of pressure not to fail..because in my family, failure is unacceptable. I've been going through some of my computer science and many are starting to feel more difficult than ever...i am currently in calc 1...and things I've gotten a lot more difficult...should i peruse this degree or find another alternative.
A. Usually having strong math and logic skills is an important part of Computer Scieince studies.
If you are not doing well in math and your programming classes then you may need to consider changing to a different major. Most 4 year schools will allow you to make that change with little loss of credits right up until the end of your second year. I regularly run into very smart people who are not gifted at programming - I think programmers are born and not made. It you are not good at it all the classes in the world will not help you.
There are many jobs in IT that pay just as well and have little to no programming involved. Here are just a few:
Computer technician - Works on computer hardware. (entry level IT Job)
Help Desk Staff - answer questions and resolve problems for the user community. (entry level IT Job - Tier 1 support)
Storage Administrator - in charge of mass storage devices.
Network Administrator - Works on routers, switches, hubs, cables, load balancers and all the other hardware that handles network traffic.
Systems Administrator - Works with servers, laptops and desktop computers to keep them free of problems and secure the data they contain. These people may be divided into server and desktop teams. Tier 2 support.
Enterprise Administrator - Handles Enterprise support and design issues. Tier 3 support.
Active Directory Administrator - designs and administers Active Directory infrastructure.
Exchange and Messaging Administrator - maintains mail systems servers and other devices and the messaging infrastructure.
Backup Administrator - Maintains backup devices and determines backup strategies so data unintentionally and intentionally deleted can be recovered. They will design and control how and when data is backed up, where the backups are stored and how long the backups are retained.
Disaster Recovery Specialist - Plans for disaster events so the company data and infrastructure can be brought back online as quickly as possible after a fire, flood, earthquake, terrorism or other disaster event.
Database Administrator - maintains the company databases which may include customer and sales records, billing information, inventory and other data.
Computing Security Specialist - A company's biggest asset is its data and the Computing Security Specialist will work to try to keep that data protected from being lost internally or externally. They may be dealing with and defending against viruses, hoaxes, malware, phishing attacks and domestic and foreign intrusion.
Data Center Administrator - Maintains the data center facilities where the company's servers and other devices reside. They are responsible for physical security and may review badge reader and camera information to be sure that only individuals with proper access are getting close to the company's servers and other critical devices.
Best Wishes!
