Hello everyone,
First off, I know that there are a multitude of posts with this topic out there. However, there have been many generalizations and I am essentially stuck between two sides here.
I am a junior in high school and I am currently discussing post-secondary options. I have always loved the aspect of commercial aviation and I am very passionate about it. I am not referring to being an airline pilot! By this I mean sitting in front of a 6 monitor display in an OCC. However, due to the current state of the commercial aviation industry, I am also interested in computer science and I am highly evaluating that degree option too. My question is: does having an aviation degree in conjunction with a computer science degree make you stand out when hiring time comes? Or is having just a computer science degree fine? Please elaborate (preferably people with previous airline or commercial aviation experience).
Thank you,
yxjames
