What do you need to know to become a programmer?

Question

Programming

I want to apply for a programmer, while I am learning JS, what skills do I need to have when entering the Faculty of Software Engineering? I am also concerned about the question, will this profession be in demand and well paid in the future?

Answer 1

Go to the university, see what entrance exams they pass.
The faculty will primarily be mathematics, and JS may not be there at all.
Learn to use Google and common sense.

Answer 2

You need to know math and physics.
You need to understand that Russian universities "teach you how to learn" and do not provide professional knowledge. Therefore, the main training will be at your home, after classes. Or not, it's up to you.

Answer 3

>> What skills do you need to have when applying to the Faculty of Software Engineering?
Good knowledge within secondary school
Not professions are in demand, but professionals

Answer 6

in general, that is, a list of specialties, the cat gives each faculty (as it were, an educational standard).
It says about the skills and knowledge that are given to the student at the exit. There is also a list of professional IT standards on the application (they do not always coincide with the educational ones). These 11-12 standards spell out what this or that IT pro should be able to do: from the seller to the computer. Store, before Bigdat's analyst, etc., of course, there is also written about web developers .... -- see apkit.ru/committees/education/meetings/standards.php

Answer 7

What you need to know in order to enter a university - find out at the university itself which exams are required. Most often it is physics, mathematics and computer science (and, oddly enough, computer science is not always).
JS is good for getting the most basic programming skills, then you will definitely need to learn C / C ++ / C # / Java, and therefore you can already return to JS, but at a different level.
Universities are different: somewhere they teach excellently, somewhere - disgustingly.
The very fact of a higher "programmer" education rarely matters when applying for a job, an employer is more likely to hire a person without education, but with skill and experience, than an incompetent person with a diploma.
