Desired Career Upon completion of 4 years in college, I plan to pursue a career in the computer science industry. I would like to possibly pursue a career as a computer programmer or a software developer. Currently in North Carolina the starting salary for a computer programmer is $80,000. There is no additional schooling required for this career, only a bachelor's degree is required.
My mentor and resource for information regarding computer science and programming is my uncle Alex Cabrera. My uncle graduated from Columbia University and became a computer programmer right out of college. He told me that the career is good for someone like me that enjoys math and can solve complex problems on the spot.
