Should i spend a extra year for a cset degree just to have it?

<p>I’m in IT now and the course requirements between IT and Cset are 10 extra classes. The higher end computer classes requirements of both majors basically overlap with each other and the remaining 10 are classes such as calc , physics, digital logic and a few more programming courses. I can fit these classes in 2 semesters, probably a summer and a regular semester. I could also cram some of these into my next year but i don’t know if i want to overload my workload.</p>

<p>I am not that great at programming and I don’t see myself doing this professionally. However a standard computer science degree even if it just cset could be a better degree and easier to find jobs with. Its more versatile ,technical and a iconic degree that may look better to employers even if the job inst programming related such as maybe networking.</p>

<p>Would it be a good idea spend the extra time to get the extra degree solely as a certification even if i don’t intend to fully utilize it ?</p>

<p>I’m assuming CSET is computer science and engineering technology.</p>

<p>It’s not worth an extra year (and a year’s tuition) just to make it marginally easier to find a job, especially when you don’t have much of an interest in those extra courses in the first place.</p>

<p>And after your first one or two jobs, nobody will even care what your degrees are or where you went to school.</p>
