Heh I'm a lot younger than yall, just starting college, but to me it appears CS is the way to go in today's industry...if you're competent at coding and such at all, and go to a somewhat decent school, it seems like there are plenty of job opportunities. One thing I've noticed is that there are a ton of research opportunities open for undergrads in CS, and there are also a ton of interships available (thus lots of possible jobs?). A bunch of my friends got internships right after freshman year at big companies, and they got the equivalent of full pay for the 2 months or so they worked (minus benefits)...which is like 16000 dollars O_O
The only other thing I've heard of that pays summer interns that much is a job at a quant trading/algorithmic trading firm, but they hire much much fewer people. They also like people who know how to code though...maybe I should go try to get more competent at this myself rofl.
