It depends on what area you decided to focus in on. Coming out of college with a C.S. degree will open up a alot of jobs for you...however experience is a BIG thing in this industry. You won't start out making $100,000 (try about $60,000) as a programmer...and you'll also need to figure out WHAT you want to program. Some software will be heavy in math (ie: computer games) others will not (ie: website development), figure out what you like to write and stick to that. Also alot of software development companies looks for people who know specific languages (java, python, c/c++, etc). Master a couple languages so that you'll be well rounded in the field.
Reply:Programming, you can make good money if you can get in with a good company, which you can get if you go to a school with a good CS program.

Reply:Come to Silicon Valley. You can make a lot of money here. Of course, the cost of living is high, but you can still do well. In IT management, you can bring in maybe $120-$150K in middle management for a moderate-size company.





As for positions, you could go into systems analysis, IT, product marketing, product design, programming, and any number of other tech fields.
