It's a pretty strong job market right now, from what I hear, and Computer Science remains a popular discipline.  So, finding a job shouldn't be too great a problem.  The two things that may be obstacles are:\n\n1. The specific type of job you're looking for.  If you are too narrow in your search, you may limit your choices too much.\n\n2. The strategy you use to find a job.  You can't wait around for someone to find you.  You need to be proactive in your search, and use a variety of methods.\n\nI've attached a link to an article that should help.\n\nBest of luck to you.

BS in Computer Sciences.\n\nIf you go to a good US or Canadian university and do well, you will be able to go to graduate school anywhere in the world.

I've known people who obtained MBAs and those who obtained Masters degrees.\n\nAsk these questions of yourself:\n-Are you good with numbers?\n-Do you prefer working with numbers or mechanical objects/tools?\n-Do you want to manage *people* or *projects*?\n-Will you have a good command of the language where you will have your job?\nIf all of these are true, the MBA is a good program for you.\n\nIf you are better with projects than with people, (that is, you prefer to build things rather than manage people) then the Masters degree is better.  One thing to consider:  your future employer should say what Masters degree and what thesis they want, and *how much more* they will pay you if you get it.  \n\nIf they will only pay 3% more per year, don't get the Masters degree.  I know many engineers that obtained the Masters degree and can't find jobs, or are underpaid - a BS degree is enough. \n\nA PhD degree will pay much more, but even then, only if the employer is willing to give you the job.  It is up to you to confirm that the job will be high paying *BEFORE* you get the graduate degree.\n\nP.S. I apologize for the comments of the first answerer - he is worried he will lose his job to someone who is willing to work hard to get an advanced degree.  He is correct that a college graduate must have excellent communication skills to get respect in the working world.

first of all you need to understand your job profile and what are the recruiters looking forward to see in your Resume,As a computer programmer, you will be involved with coding, writing and de-bugging applications on a day to day basis.\n\nYou will work both a brief of an application, and also require initiative to suggest how to do things, how to do things better, to streamline code and so on.\n\nYou will need to be able to work on your own projects and on larger projects, also pick up code where others have left off.\n\nTherefore the key thing you need is a detailed knowledge of the language(s) in which you will be required to work. Therefore you will have at least a bachelors degree in your subject, but often even further qualifications than this.\n\nAs a programmer, you must of course have superb general computing skills too. You have good analysis skills, attention to detail and patience to get programs to work.\n\nGood people skills are not essential but being able to communicate clearly is. You will also need to be comfortable with working in front of a computer screen for most of the day - something which does not appeal to many.\n\nAlso concentrating on your own and working for extended periods on your own are also abilities that you must possess.\n\nFor a good programmer, the demand for their skills will always be high, and there will be very good money on offer too. Top programmers can earn six figure salaries and even retire young!\nso try to combine all you have studied and what you have learned or gained from your previous experience.\nDon't hesitate to add any valuable info, languages spoken, activities, seminars attended, certificates...etc\nBest of luck

Short answer, no...\n\nLong Answer: I am a college graduate, having done the traditional after-high-school approach. I have been in the market place for many years so here is my opinion, for what it is worth. \n\nCOllege is not for everyone. Some people should NOT go, only because their head is not in the right place to learn and utilize the knowledge to "learn how to learn". What that means is something you already know. Hard work, perserverance, and theh ability to learn are the keys to success. The college degree is an evidence of that, but not a guarantee. There are many educated derilicts in the world, many from ivy league where the degrees have essentially been purchased with little demand for performance. The party school is almost considered a right of passage, and I think it is a disgrace to all that did it the right way. \n\nAs a person who interviews people for hire, I know that a college degree will be a proof of study, and I admire some schools over others for their ability to turn out good candidates. BUT, the ones with work experience are highly prized, degree or not. \n\nSO,  FOR YOU..\n- If you need an entry level job- get a degree ...YOU specifically  don;t need it for this\n- If you need the education for a particular skill in business, engineering, healthcare- get a degree....YOU do not need it for your own businesss, but it could help you grow. A good book or partner  could help also\n- .If you need to have a need to compete in the workplace for promotion in the future - the degree will be an asset for promotion in many areas - YOU may need it, but not for your own business\n- If you need the sense of self accomplishment - the degree is a source of pride- clearly, YOU don;t need it. \n\nIf you still want one, night school is always available. NOBODY questions whether you partied with the frat boys all day or  worked your @ss off at night plus day. \n\nThe degree can be an asset to a better paycheck, in general...but some have been successful without it. Bill Gates is a college dropout for instance. I do notice that you are working very hard to be successful...will you need to do that all your life? A degree may allow an income without 18 hour days eventually \n\nSounds like your head is on straight, enjoy your life and don't worry about what others think. Your parents understand the conventional wisdom of college degree = success....The problem is, that is not conventional wisom anymore. DO they want the degree for their pride or for yours?

There are a lot of oppurtunities. It might take a month or two to find work but there is definitly work. If you havent graduated yet start looking foir work a month or two before your finish. If you can't find work just programs ome stuff while you are looking so you don't go rusty.\n\nThe nice thing about learning any programming language is that you can easily pick up other programming language as there are small differences between them, other than the syntax of course.  What i am trying to say is that it will be asy to pick the theory part.

It can't hurt...but it's all in what you study and how you apply it.  I once met a man with a Ph.D. in cultural anthropology driving a cab.  And I have met very successful corporate CEO's who never finished a bachelor's degree... although these are rare cases.\n\nFor the average person on the street... if you want a white collar professional job with opportunity for advancement, yes, you really do need to have at least a bachelor's degree in today's job market.  Educate yourself to be a productive and competitive worker, and keep refreshing your education every few years to stay current.  The fact that our labor force in the US is badly under-educated is a big part of the reason why our jobs are going to Bagalore. \n\nBeyond that, graduate degrees are worthwhile, but only if you are properly motivated and focused on realistic career goals, so I think most people are better off waiting and working for a few years before going back to grad school so they don't waste their degrees.

After completed your course you can achieve a good job but you must a good knowledge of ORACLE9i and should have some experience. I think, if you can take a certificate of MCDBA than it sure you can achieve job with a good salary.

I think it all depends on what part of the US you are wanting to work in. There are some places where you will thrive with the degree and other places you will flounder.

You definitely have a chance cause you have your masters! however i think you have a better chance in civil engineering but who knows, you might be able to find a job in environmental too...it depends on what company you apply and how much experience you have. I know that for a college graduate in civil engineering without experience is about $50,000..my nephew is a CE.\n\nYou should apply to large companies and you should have done it while you were in your last year of your Masters...\n\nI am sure you will get something, keep trying.\n\nI must warn you always negotiate once you have the interview even if they offer you a certain amount. Most americans, get paid a lot more than foreign people..i know..i used to work for Motorola and i am indian...we used to have indian people with MS in Computer science and they started at $50,000 but  the americans would start higher about $65,000....so..just wanted to let you know that you should negotiate and try to get a higher salary...

ok good doing hardware and networking is also fine but the institutes are IIHT ,JETKING,and many others you can do 12months international certificate course which will help you a lot for your future either you can work in your own state or you can move abroad using this international certificate if at all you get good percentage then the top most companies will offer you the good job any still then you can have your own carieer got it .\nbut one thing to tell you what ever u do there is ur career ur future but what is the thingis  u will have to put ur efforts and work hard to reach your goal and succeed not at the last but at the first itself i hope u will have a better future best of luck bye

It is very good for education, however job prospects are not so good. USA is the best!

If you can do it, the best options for you will be to get a Masters and/or PhD from a university in a country where the native language is English. In that way, you'll be truly fluent when you leave, and also have gained an in-depth understanding of the cultures that helped form the language. So, I'd look at schools in the US, in England, in Canada, and potentially even in Australia. \n\nA good resource that you can start with is the Peterson's Guide. I've provided a link, below. Click on the topic "grad school", and you'll be able to learn what qualifications and exams you'll need in order to be able to enter a graduate level program in the USA.

Honestly speaking there are no "perfect" jobs.\n\nFirst, you should research the industry you want to work in. This way you can find out what you want to do, and what it takes to pursue employment.\n\nWhy are you still continuing your education? There is nothing wrong with obtaining degrees but if you want to pursue a career you might want to consider putting your education on hold for the moment so you can focus better.\n\nThis is why research is so critical! You are going back and forth without making concrete decisions about what you really want to do.\n\nYou should speak with an adviser and career counselor at your college and university about your career goals.  This way you can put together a realistic plan of action to accomplish them.\n\nYou may want to consider going part-time and find an entry-level that will give you some experience to carry over after you graduate with your BA Degree.\n\nRemember, in many cases it does not matter how many degrees you have. Employers do want individuals who have a college education, but they are also looking for "real world" experience.\n\nIn your case work is very important because you have a family to take care of. \n\nI hope this info is helpful. \n\nCheck out the link below. This is worth reading about your career aspirations.\n\nhttp://www.bls.gov/oco/ocos050.htm
