Comments on: Computer Degrees: CS vs. CE vs. CIS vs. none http://eliw.wordpress.com/2008/04/17/computer-degrees/ Random thoughts on random topics Mon, 07 Jul 2008 02:50:01 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=MU By: ninjainvisible http://eliw.wordpress.com/2008/04/17/computer-degrees/#comment-259 ninjainvisible Wed, 30 Apr 2008 16:46:28 +0000 http://eliw.wordpress.com/?p=78#comment-259 I'm in the process of getting my CS (although sometimes it seems pointless since I'll have almost 10 years of experience after I graduate). After being in the programming arena for a while, taking classes can be redundant but once in a while it will correct some bad practices. I agree that without a CS degree, being able to tell if a person is "in touch" with how and why computers do what they do is difficult. I was wondering how you felt concerning non-regionally accredited programs (in other words: programs that are accredited by the Higher Learning Commission instead of CSAB)? I'm only able to attend classes online, so my actual choices for programs is VERY limited.
