In order to get into entry level computer science jobs, you really should potentially go after an associate's degree from a community college. It is not as extensive as the bachelor degree from a well-known university and it will take you longer to achieve the salary of a full blown CS degree, but it’s a start in the right direction in the computer field. You might potentially get into an IT (information technology) technician role while working on an associate's degree.
Some computer science jobs do not require a specific degree from a university or college. Some companies will actually train you from the beginning without any prior experience or education in computer science. If you concentrate getting an associate's degree, this will generally increase your odds of getting an entry-level job.
Why don’t you do a summer internship? I know of someone who is currently employing an intern who has about a year and a half of computer science and worked last summer and was asked back for working this summer. An individual who does the internship goes back to school with a lot of experience that will help him get through his classes a lot easier and is already established with a company and is usually hired upon graduation of college.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
