Are Computer Science courses in Universities for students who are getting a career in software programming?

Question by gordsmash: Are Computer Science courses in Universities for students who are getting a career in software programming?
I’m at that age where I have to start looking at colleges and the universities that I’ve looked at do not have a specific course just for programming. I was wondering if the Computer Science courses are for students who wish to have a career in computer programming and software development/programming.

All answers will be greatly appreciated

Google YOUR STATE + WORK STUDY — wonderful if you are not wealthy

Look for programming and computer science

Sometimes called information science

Software development and programming are very much the same

Visit personnel office at electric utility and see if they will allow you to visit programmers for study tips, pointers, and if they have work-study program

Virtually all large companies have computer science people and programmers

Programming is not the only job. Do some of this seriously and a picture will begin to form, a reliable one.
