<p>Most programmers don’t have CS degrees. </p>
<p>There are plenty of programmers with EE degrees. Somewhere along the line, they took a few programming classes, and that’s what got them their jobs. Same with other STEM majors. </p>
<p>I’ve also worked with software developers with degrees in geology, finance and history.</p>
<p>The moral of the story is - try to take a few programming classes, no matter what you major is.</p>
<p>The downside of all this is if you really wanted to do electrical engineering and can’t find a job doing that, you may end up working on crap like iPhone party invitation apps or something.</p>
