pls how can I combine my studies and programming, I have beening learning this programming especially scripting language like html, css, php and javascript since 2013 but it seem am not putting much time to it due to my studies, guys I need you help

it's easy, combine them in one. Make Computer Science your major.

I like computers does not mean I must study CS... I dislike physics, chemistry, maths e.t.c
But today with persistent training I can code and I did not make CS my major..

If the OP can schedule his coding to 1hr daily its ok... His in school and would have loads of courses to study...

In the end it would pay off though what I recommend are the following majors for him:

Electronic Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Computer Information Systems

There are others in his shoes... who wouldn't like anything CS but like computers..

What do u mean by it would pay off

What I meant bros is that you can take an engineering/science degree with you anywhere in the world because it pays off.

U can use programming anywhere in the world... Most programmers are self employed..

Yes, that's because they make more money being self-employed than working for a company.

Let's use U.S. salaries as an example

Why make $140,000 a year (about $66 USD/hr) when you can make ($110 USD/hr) as a private contractor doing everything from.

My point is a Computer degree doesn't matter in programming.

Am currrently a computer engineering student in kaduna polytechnic, am currently giving programming one hour each day, but I need more advice from you guys

What kind of advice? You are on the right path.

Thank you falaman

You are welcome man

First priority just worry about your studies, as time progresses your major will address more complex/advanced areas that it will all come naturally. Computer Engineers are amazing.

the only other thing I recommend is possibly going to a better school for comp. engineering to further your education. I'm not saying Kaduna Polytechnic is bad, but you could certainly apply yourself more at other schools. What are you 17 or 18? You have a lot of time ahead to develop yourself into the Engineer you want to be. I can tell you once you are in my age range late 20s/early 30s you will be well made and be able to do anything you want in the realm of technology.

you can do this easily if u're a parttime student and u work as a computer tutor or ur courses are mathematically inclined and if are a multi-tasking individual.

Programming requires a lot of time and sometimes one gets carried away. At least 12hrs a day for the next 120 days.Also pick your area of interest among the available programming languages;preferable the likes of Java, PHP, ASP.net and Sql.

Which nigerian university teaches comp sc best with lot of programming.

Amazed 2 find such thread.It's lyk mubitetechnology knows wat has been bodering me all along.Faced wit thesame issues bro.The bitter truth is programming and computer related affairs needs a lot of time dedication,why do u tink d lyks of Bill Gates,Aaron Swartz,Michael Dell,Steve Jobs,Linus Torvald(If I am ryt) nd a whole lots of odas had 2 bcome dropouts inorder 2 focus.Dude,aint advicing u 2 do same,but programming is complex and its hard 2 serve 2 masters at d same tym.What u r studying(Comp Engineering) is hardware,nt abt programming.My advice,focus on sch,get ur degree.U can alwys continu frm where u left in programming.

Steve Jobs was never a programmer

You take a few computer science programming classes in your first two years in the comp engineering programme. It's in your last two years that upper division classes get a bit different.

Electrical engineers, Computer Engineers, and Computer Scientists should all be versed in at least one language.

If you are studying computer engineering you are probably thinking of embedded systems. If you are studying computer science you can switch the focus to software engineering which is very heavily programming focused.

He was a computer sales man/businessman.I said "Computer programming and computer related affairs" That was why I mentioned him
