I am not sure which degree will get my where I wish to go / most options. The university says that CS is my best choice for options. I thought I would ask you guys. I work as a web programmer right now, which is fine, but I want to be involved where it all really happens.
Just so confused and do not want to waste 4 years of studying.
dude according to me u should start with certification, they are hot in demand. u can go for mcad, mcsd(old 1') or mcts (new generation) certification from Microsoft. u can check out there site for the technology u want to work on. u can also go for java technology, java certifications.

as far as new computer architechture is concern there are various certifications provided by Microsoft. u can check there site for that.

u can do degree also side by side if u wish, coz in higher level certification, a certain degree is reqd, employers ask for that at interview time. u cna do it privately n focused on certification n do some job also to gain some experience reqd for top level certifications.
