How much study is involved in a computer science degree?

Ho much actual at home study is involved in a computer science degree as I also work a full time job.

How much study is involved in a computer science degree?
I hope you love programming because they do a lot of programming and its really time consuming learning codes so hopefully your only taking like 12 units a semester or your really into this stuff or else you will have some difficulties.
Reply:If you want to do well, you'll have to study an average of 3-5+ hours for each course per week. Hours of study may vary with your aptitude for math...
Reply:There are a lot of factors:





1. How many classes are you taking?


2. How good is your grasp for technology (do you have a passion for it?)


3. Is your current job related to technology?





You are going to have to think in a different way... depending on the program, you will also have to learn 4 or 5 computer-based languages, and how to think logically, etc.





In the beginning, you will spend time changing into that mode of thinking. It may be a good idea to start slow...
Reply:A LOT.


Computer Science is a branch of a Mathematics degree, so a lot of math classes are involved (think calculus and above). Any degree you wish to pursue will all involve a ton of study in the college level
